@@BassCampOfficial More than a million... maybe some crazy number like, I don't know, 1.62 million
when he said there is a fill at the end of the phrase i don’t know why i’ve expected a 100 notes tapping fill :)))
That Davie don't even n share his bass knowledge with us... Thanks for opening this channel.
Great lesson! If some constructive criticism is fine then I think it would be nice to add the chords in the backing track along with the drums to put the bassline into harmonic context for newer players. Also if you choose to incorporate said backing tracks into future videos then choosing to share them to KZread viewers would provide us something more to practice with to come up with our own basslines! Excited to see where the channel will go :)
This video could happily be followed up by both theory on a lower level (what the bass is a 5:th?) and higher level (how to Charles), and I for one would watch them instantly!

5 th is fifth interval, seven semitones (frets) between the notes For example fifth of e chord will be b, for d chord will be a , etc.

This is so cool! You're a great teacher! Looks like I'll be digging out my bass tonight after work
This channel is off to a great start!! Can't wait to follow closely
Don't even play bass anymore but Charles is the GOAT and deserves the subs on this channel too!! Real talent should get paid better
Looking forward to the content. Keep it up, Charles!
Oh this channel is going to be so good! Thank you for this. You have so much skill, I look forward to learning what you have to teach.
Love how easy you relayed music theory components to track in this process. Love the video and he concept of the new channel. Looking forward to future content.
This is pure gold! Thank you Charles 😊
thank you, Charles, this helped a lot
Great lesson man👍. Thank you
Yes ! Love this video ! More please !
Great going Charles. Looking forward to many more videos
Very very well put together, Charles! Not intimidating, very smooth. Thanks brother
Hello new channel! Great idea, doesn't dilute your existing channel, makes it easier for actual bass newbs like me to find the more technical stuff 👍🤘
Great start! I hope to see lots more from you!
This was great Charles. Very catchy and enjoyable to play. More like this please! 😊
Awesome lesson! Thx Charles. I'm loving this channel already.
Thank you Charles for this new channel. I think it's time to pick up my old bass again and have some fun once more.
thank you for doing this man! I am looking forward to see more content and learn from you, you are a legend🤘
This was spectacularly clear and helpful. Looking forward to seeing where this channel goes.
Love it, thanks man!
Great video, thanks for sharing these tip.
Not only a system for composing bass lines, that has also helped me understand a few bass lines that I've been trying to learn. Thank you. Subbed
What a time to be alive
An excellent and practical tutorial(!) with musical foundation and fun to boot! 🎵🎸🎶
This guy is going to be recognized!
Really solid lesson. Thank you very much!
Thank you, Charles! These are the types of videos I need.
Charles, I am extremely grateful for your work and leading the bass culture to new realms. You are one of my favorite bassists of the 21st century!!!
Can't wait to see everything you do here! I always thought of bass as just a thing you needed to be in the background somewhere, but not too loud, and definitely not drawing attention to itself. You made me question my choice of instruments, and made me look at music in a completely different way.
Very nicely done, I look forward to many more videos on this channel. Thank you.
Damn this lesson is pure gold! Simple, effective, and potentially producing beautiful songs. I can't wait to try it out! Thank you very much! ❤
Thks Charles !! May the bass be with you
I play by ear mostly but have recently learned to read tabs.. this is AWESOME! Thanks for another great channel!
Fantastic tutorial! Thank you!
Hello Charles thanks for this great lesson very clear and instructive Phil

Great Tutorial! you always give me some sort of Inspiration when ever I watch one of your videos.
Thanks Charles, I know I will continue to enjoy all your content going forward!
This is exactlly what I needed. Can't wait for more!
Great lesson! Can’t wait for more! Thanks Charles!
Really enjoyed and learned from this video!!! Can’t wait for more lessons
this is some really useful info, love the lesson! Thank you, instant sub!
Graet tutorial ! As guitarist who need to record some bass lines sometimes, I'm really excited with this channel ! Thanks !!
This guy is good! Underrated channel!
Excellent. Very simple but complete at the same time. I love it
AND SO IT BEGINS!!!! YAY! I'm so glad you started this :)
I've been following you Charles on your other channel for years. You are an amazing bass player and instructor as well. I really like this first video lesson. I find it to be a really solid one. I really hope and wish you the best of success with this new channel and adventure, you really deserve it. My total admiration and respect!
i've been following this channel since 97 great job as always!
I've been waiting for this with so much entusiasm, i'm sure your lessons will give me the last steps to become a PRO BASSIST !!!
Thank you so much for starting this channel. I haven't played in over a decade, and i am absolutely interested in getting back into it. I would love to see some sort of breakdown or guide to setting up decent tone. That is one thing I always struggled with back when I was playing.
Very nice and easy-to-understand tutorial. Thanks for sharing 😮😮😮
Excellent lesson Charles, so well explained. 👍🏻👍🏻
It seems incredible that you start with this electric bass channel, it will be of great support, and rest assured that you will have my support if possible, Charles, thank you very much
Creating this channel is an awesome idea! I'll watch every video. Thank you!
Love the video! Excited for another channel of BASS. 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Thank you. For serious, thank you. You're the man, and you share the how's n why's of how you do it. Bravo.
Really great tips and super easy to follow! I'm not a theory guy by amy stretch, but I sort of picked up patterns similar to this naturally by listening to some of my favorite basslines and noodling around. Now I can apply some structure and purpose to my noodling!
Thanks! The multi-layered theme is explained very clearly step by step. You have good teaching skills.
im so excited for the you’re gonna post
Congratulations on the first vid of many to come! It was nice following along on my *guitar* hehe
i cant wait to put these tips into practice! Berthoud ol' chap, your a diamond. i've made notes an found a list of common chord progressions to work with. time to rock some socks!
Awesome tutorial. Thanks, man.
dude a tapping tut video would be so awesome. I'v listened to a couple of your songs and it looks so fun
i first watched this video nearly 2 months ago, and i swear your bassline hasn't left my head since. you clearly know your stuff
You are the best, Charles. 🎉❤
I think this is THE most useful tuto i've ever seen (and i watched a lot, many of them very good too!).
Gorgeous tutorial thanks charles your a star
This is very helpful Thank you🙏
Daamn Charles you are one of the most talented people ever. I just bought a 5 string ibanez and it sounds absolutely amazing!
Wow!! This has to be the best bass tutorial I've ever seen! Subbed!. You took the text right out my writing
good luck with this new channel. I've already subscribed!
Love your content good luck with the new channel:)
Highly useful, thanks a lot!
Hey Charles, just wanna say I don't even play bass (guitarist) but I still really enjoy your videos and think you are an absolute beast of a musician. Keep crushing it! ❤
Great job explaining and making it look fairly simple to build a song 🎵
This is a VERY good lesson. It's to a point, it's short, and it has very good tips and applicable knowledge. I play the guitar, and these can be applied with my instrument as well, e.g... crafting solos or chord progressions with fills
It is great to see one of the best bass players in the entire world sharing how to make magic from beggining. This channel is going to be a real succes im sure and most important its going to chage lives.
That progression you're using is something I've been playing from the beginning. It's a super common progression, making it a good choice.
Happy to be here from the first video. I'm waiting to find out how you do that double slappy thing.
Love your lessons.....keep going on please.
❤❤❤This was amazing we need more and more
Super helpful!
Great work Charles !!!
Excellent lession thanks
