Dan, just bought the funk course yesterday for this reason and it looks great. The book, the playlist, your video content alongside each groove - I've been really impressed by how articulate you are in your playing, communication and overall teaching approach. Have a great weekend and I'll enjoy this one with my morning coffee. Thanks.

He's playing my dream bass. I want one badly & I have to save up many dollar bills to get it.
good lesson , thank you Dan , ..
Great lesson Dan. Looking forward to a lesson Master Blaster.
What a great exercise and fun jam to approach,in times past all we could do is marvel and now we can play it, thanks Dan!!
Starting to all come together. Great lesson Dan!
Thanks, Dan really informative lesson. I’ve found it really helpful to take some 16th note lines that are e.g. 80 - 100bpm and slow them right down with a metronome to something like 40bpm (which can be quite tricky) and then really focus on the note placement, also helps with sight reading. As you say, once you do that for a while it suddenly starts to click into place. Then I gradually speed up in increments of 5bpm to get up to the actual tempo. Really enjoy your lessons, some of the best on the internet and as a fellow 70s stingray player the tone you’re getting out of your stingray is awesome!

The bass only has bass and treble EQ. Treble down quite a lot, bass up quite a lot! No EQ or compression anywhere else.
Thanks Dan great lesson. I have Master laster on Tomplay and have been working on it. This lesson helps me a lot.

Glad it helped!
Your voice tone goes a little with the MM tone! Kidding, sounds like you have a small bug. Love this video, in fact all your vids on improv are great. Thanks a lot Dan

😂 I had to batch record a bunch of videos whilst I’m away and, unfortunately, I sound ropey in all of them.
