​@raaahlancien but by the time you figure it out it's changed to a different chord 😆

I have an answer, use two applications - Harmonomics and especially Functional Ear Trainer. If you do it daily and keep progressing, in a year or two you will be able to hear individual notes in chords. It can literally take you to world-class, elite ear level.

Using a piano can be a good place to start. It’s easier to identify specific chord tones than on bass, also many bass chord patterns leave out certain notes (3rd/5th/7th) that can gives clues as to the specific chord.

Gonna go and practise this right now!! 🔥

Why do you slide out of most of your phrases? Is this just a habit or is there a tonal reason behind it?

That’s awesome to hear, congrats on the new bass!

Learning how to identify chords by ear would be extremely useful. Especially with the 7th, 9th, sus2, sus4, augmented and diminished chords. Being able to hear which inversions of chords are used would also be beneficial. Something I have zero clue on how to learn and gets very confusing when the same chord can have like 5 different names based off the context they are used in.

What i like to do is literally just learn songs by ears, but when learning it, you wanna bring out all the roots and figure out if it’s either major, minor, diminished, etc. by learning the fills, or listening to what other instruments are playing. Starting out, learning the fills would be more beneficial. But a lot of it is from just memorizing the sound of each chords, which takes a lot of experience. But learning the fills should eventually get you better, if you do the method consistently. This is currently my method rn, and learning theories while putting those theories i learned into practice by learning songs have helped me identify chords a lot. Tho i think charles would definitely have a better method than mine

There is no secrets to this, like every other skills you have to practice it. For every chord you have to find the root of the chord and then find all the added/altered notes by finding the intervals with the root. At first, you could try to play these chords on a piano to see how it sounds and then try to sing every note.

@@TristanDelroeux I think the part that really makes it confusing is that there are 3 note and then extended chords which adds more notes; Sometimes the name of the chord changes and others, it stays the same. Then there is the dominant note sound may not be the indicator of the chord's name itself.

Identifying cords by ear would be amazing 🤩

Please do a video on how to write your own bass solo I'm really curious on how you would do it step by step

Always incredible advises! Thanks Charles!

Love hearing/seeing lots of videos with your signature when I wait for mine to be delivered.

Great lesson Charles! Thanks 🙏🏻

Great video as always, you’re doing such a great service thank you ❤❤

Really helpful, thanks Charles!

Great quick and simple vid Charles, thanks! Looking forward on how to spot chords, cheers!

THANK YOU SO MUCH CHARLES I CANT BELIEVE YOU DID THIS

this is gold ! thank you !

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Finally, I found an explanation that makes sense to me. This is a great approach to practicing solos.

Thanks ! I love you dumbed it down to build good bloc of comprehension, to smarten it up

Great vid, you soloing so effortlessly while teaching put a smile on my face.

You're an outstanding bass player and an excellent teacher too.

Simple and useful as always. Thank you! At my current level I improvise over scales and just listen carefully to sound nice along the chords. But I am learning arpegios now. This lesson will help a lot.

Nice, it's a similar concept to the sbl jazz lessons I recently followed, and he's a great teacher that helped push my playing a lot over the past few months and I'm legitimately much better and wiser than back then, I like the way you think about this stuff and you explain it very clearly, I'll experiment with it for sure, cheers 👊

VERY WELL EXPLAIN, because the chord tones are the most "sexy" notes of the music after all.

Great video Charles!! Been playing recreationally for a long time but never practice soloing. I find it intimidating. This will help a bunch 😁🎸👍🏻

Thanks à lot again for this very interesting vidéo, you are truely a great technician an also a good teacher

great lesson your are a very good teacher

Please don't stop making videos like these❤ love when advise come from you ❤🎉

thank you master charles 🙏

Yes I would love a video on identifying chords by ear !!! Songs like Isn’t She Lovely. A 1-4-5 of course is a no-brainer. Thanks !

Excelente clase, muy didáctica y esclarecedora. Muchas gracias por compartir.

Thanks really helps !

Thank you very much, you explain everything so well. But going from step 4 to step 5 is a huge jump, like, where did all that come from? I know where the notes came from, but how did you come up with those rythms? 😮

Thank you!

Great!! Aleays been a problem for me. Following this is very helpful

Great stuff 👍

Thank you boss

Very interesting, thanks for the tips! I'm a guitarist trying to get comfortable on a bass.

sweet, thank you cheers

A simple diagram of the chord shapes would be helpful to visualize the notes on the finger board. Great stuff, thanks.

Thnaks for this

pls give us the ear training video! 😅 how do you analize the track? ❤

I would love a video on identifying chords by ear.

Placing the Bass in the trash really cracked me up! Made me choke on my own spit! Great lesson!

Would love a video about identifying chords by ear!

Bass wisdom ❤❤❤❤

I'd really love a video about identifying chords by ears!

Thank you so much, Charles! I loved the video. I love this project 🙌❤ TAP LIKE BUTTON!! 😂

im not even a bassist but damn i need to practice this

I play guitar, not bass, however I still found this very helpful and insightful! 🤘

In the step 7, when adding non chord tones do you think of different scale positions? Chord extensions, or do you have some other method of visualization ?😄

this videos are so helpfull!!! Can you do more Victor Wooten transcription videos?

SUPER 🙂

Please do the video on how to identify chords by ear please 🙏 🙏 🙏

Free lessons from the goat? So generous

Please Charles do a video on ear training, to detect chord tones with ear

A Wooten fan soloing over Isn't She Lovely... Lol seriously though, great lesson! I've worked on soloing more since I started playing 6 string a couple of years ago, and all this is definitely helpful

Charles is a phenomenal talent, for sure. He has taken slap and tap to an entirely new level of musicality. As a jazz guy, he's not the greatest "soloist" however, meaning improv finger-style and all that - obviously you can't be great at 'everything'. So that makes this lesson even more valuable, especially to beginners. Very applicable, and it's not taught from a level you'll never achieve (unlike his ridiculous slap and tap stuff... godlike!) Another GREAT teacher, probably the best, is Scott Devine. Just a superb soloist and teacher - a rare combo. Thanks Charles.

Guitarists often get away with ignoring the chords and just playing diatonic scales because the rest of the band is covering the harmony. This chord tone approach is more necessary for bass players because when it's time for a bass solo, everybody else has a bad habit of laying out and leaving the bass to carry the weight of the harmony and solo at the same time. If you're playing chord tones, you're automatically implying the harmony even if nobody else is.

super!!!!!

Keep doing video Charles, its very useful for me and for us in general ❤🙏🏻🔥🎸💪🏻💯🔛🔝(not enough emote lol)

Long time ago for soling, I looked only at the root notes of a riff and neglected them thirds and then looked up the key which has all those root tones in it. On guitar it’s normally C/a or G/e and I didn’t know of modes then. Most of the time it worked out neglecting the thirds, because they were - as all songs were made by either me or my guitarist buddy- automatically in the right alternation, otherwise we felt that something is wrong. But we did run into problems when in C a B was played- We didn’t know of seventh chords then, Humanity has such a rich source of information by their fingertips now, I wonder what I would be now, I we had that back then. Maybe I would have become a professional musician or my whole band. We all had talents, but different motivations and intentions, but all had a huge interest in making music. Now I only play guitar or drums once per month….😮

Where can I find the link to the backing track?

That was very helpful. Thank you so much 😊 I subscribed and I’m waiting for more bass theory training tips !

it would also works with 6 string short scale picollo bass i belive

They want the ear training! Amazing lol, couldn’t ever get my students to care about chord flavor

Kinda not fair that I came to understanding this over the course of 2-3 years and kids can pick it up with a 10min video😅 You are the best, dude! Love you big time!

I got your reply but don’t have the app. Do you happen to use discord by chance?

Can I have one of your bass. I'm from the Philippines. I love to play bass but i dont have one to play and practice.

👍🎸

Maestro un favor enseñanos paso a paso o tutorial del like a tu seguidores de tu canal

I feel I’m stuck in one scale block.😢

I heard that "bass solo" is when the rest of the band stops while the bass player just keeps doing what they have been doing all along. and everyone else can get that conversation in.

Like a HAMSTER!

Don't Leroy Jenkins the battle plan--learn the chord progression so you can crush the tank role with your mighty bass.

“It may take you up to half an hour to get comfortable doing this!” You mean, once you’ve been playing bass for 6 years?

0:20 No. No one has ever asked for a bassist to do a solo.

Unpopular opinion: the bass isn't built for this. High note soloing sounds just dull on a bass; the guitar does a much better job at that. I'd just focus in the middle and low range end of the bass

stick to slapping vic wooten-ish stuff. you're not melodic
