Nice Video! Excuse me for chiming in, I would appreciate your thoughts. Have you thought about - Riddleagan Skillful Playing Remedy (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is a great one of a kind guide for learning complex guitar chords and become a pro minus the headache. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my friend Sam got great success with it.

@@BecomeABassist Thank you for these videos, I agree 100% with the comment above! These exercises help you understand the link between each notes, practicing those will definitely improve the way I move around between chords on my bass :O

This is exactly what I need now to become more at home on the fretboard. Thx so much!

The best exercise for beginer that I ever saw! Thank you!

Another excellent lesson Luke! Great warm-up, great learning for scales, arpeggios, 4 note chords, etc. Doing this is random keys, etc. daily as part of a warm-up would be so valuable. Thanks for doing this lesson. Great stuff!!!

Excellent idea for exercise, very useful in actual playing later on. Many many thanks Mark!

This is a great lesson/exercise Luke! One of the things I find most genuine about your instruction is that you don't edit out the hiccups that might occur during a demonstration making us learners feel at home with you.

After actually seeing you play this weekend at a Jazz Fest in a lot of different sub-genres, I was blown away with your authenticity. Makes me want to practice so much more!

It was great to meet you Stu as well as witness your abilities as an MC! Glad it’s motivated you to practice too - that’s always a good thing!

WOW! Such variety and versatility hidden in plain sight! You got my respect,

I've studied these exercise in a jazz/ modern music school in Milan, but I didnt know the last one! So thank you.

Really top notch video - I've heard similar practice advice from elsewhere but this video is far more visually helpful - thank you so much, brother!

Dude..this is great. Makes so much sense. Thank you!

Bass brothers this video is awesome. It absolutely forces you to keep the fretting hand in right position

Greetings from Spain. I’ve just discovered these very, very cool exercises that can take you to the next level because there are almost endless combinations to work with. They are going to keep me busy for a while, I’m sure of that. Well done!

I do appreciate your will to transmit your passion. The world is much better than I thought after viewing your video. Thank you very much !

Love this exercise. A true teacher. Thank you and all the best to you.

I've been practising basslines on my guitar, i'm on my way to getting actual bass, tomorrow i'll do some of these, nice video friend!

got it already?

Great vid! I've seen other bass channels recommend the same method yet, while I understood what they were saying to do musically, they didn't provide as much visual information in the vid and it was essentially up to you to stop, look up the notes and piece it together while you could practically play along with this one. Makes it much quicker to put into practice and start improving.

Hi luke thank you so much for the help and the free download for the bass. Can't wait to learn off you thanks.

Oh man, it's just such a treat for an expert just completing the first example.. because all the puzzle pieces are already there!!

Great as usual ✌🏼 Thanks...(Greetings from Italy)

needed a good arpeggio exercise, this is perfect! thanks!

A real challenge for me, but loved trying to get the syncopation correct on YYZ. Back to the fretboard now my fingers have stopped aching! Many thanks Luke!

Whaaat this is crazyy! I've only been doing the first exercice ( begginer exercice ) for like, 3 days and i have already seen improvement. Mind you, i have only been playing for a week. And i am NOT lying. These really work man, thanks!!

This is a great video! I would highly recommend watching. I have learned a lot and it was fun!

This honestly reminds me of learning the grand scale on piano. Absolutely invaluable information! Thanks! I will be practicing all of this!

Love that Spector tone.

That's a nice workout, I'll add the intermediate and advanced version to my practice routine, starting by going up the major scale and playing the chords from root to seventh, and after that going down the scale and from the seventh to the root. I guess that blends really well with the idea I had to start practicing scales more so that I can play more diversely. I like it!

God bless you so much Sir... I love this...

excellent!!!! thanks Luke!!!

Brilliant lesson! Thanks man!!

Thank you so much I learned from you so many bass knowledge.

This is great allowed me to work the frets in a way that helped lean not just the frets but also the cords

One of the best tutorials I've experienced.

Great lesson. Thanks.

So grateful

Always learn so much - thank you👍👌🎶🎸

Thank you. Very. Helpful.

wonderful lesson watched God bless you bra. Luke

i like the advance part! pretty cool man

This is a great set of exercises. I've been working on improving my fretless intonation on two different basses (a Fender Jazz 4 and an Ibanez SRF706 6 string) and these are great to work on that. To quadruple value I sing every note and play to a metronome.

very useful thanks

You are my saviour. God bless you 🙏

Very smart lesson, I will try the levels one after the other. I'm in France and I don't speak English very well, I appreciate your fairly moderate language flow and the subtitles, I understand almost everything, which is not often the case on other bass sites. Well done.

Thank you bro....

Great lesson Luke just subscribed

Thank you

Thank you so much for this video brother. It has taught me more in the 13mins than paying for expensive online lessons ( not trashing them just stating a fact) thanks again it really has broken the boredom and has enabled me to mess around with recorded music and start to emulate some of their bass lines. Look for to seeing some of your other vids.

There's more than beginners and advanced players. There are people like me...... I learned kamikaze mushroom palace as my first song on the bass... and I hear things like evil vibrations by the rebirth and I know right then and there that I need technique. Not beginners tips. Like this video... it's perfect for a guitar player like me that after 20 years of playing, finally learned triads because Noone mentioned them till now to me. Thank u sir. This video is amazing. I'm so lucky to have found u finally.

Thank you luca

Hi ! Great exercices fitness our hands thanks you exelent teacher

Excellent exercice pour se familiariser avec les arpèges indispensable pour compo et impro dextérité bien connaître son manche tout bénef même traduit en anglais ça reste compréhensible good job👍🤘

Thank you for the tabs. God bless . I'm watching your videos always coz i want to emprove my self as bassist 😇.. I already subcribe your channel. Thanks a lot teacher 😇

Neat exercise, can also be combined with some chords, or even a 1-2-4-6 instead of the 1-3-5-7 setup for full tones.

thank you for this.

This is just what I need to try to get the feeling back into my left (fretting) fingers after my small stroke during surgery in January. They’re numb and kind of clubby & lost, right now, and every time I try to just play songs, I end up just working on a couple of key licks. Maybe this exercise will help to get them re-familiar with the fretboard. Thank you.

try to memorize this. Perhaps this gonna be my big-simple meal for any gigs upcoming

and if you are just starting out, play them slow, slow enough that you are not making any mistakes and are playing clean and in time. I've been playing Guitar for 40 years, I learned wrong, the mistakes I made in Songs 30 Years ago I still make, and the riffs where my fingers get tangled up are still the same. Any mistakes you Learn will stay with you forever. To make it a bit easier to play slow "The space between the notes creates the colour of the scene" YES - Close to the Edge

Great comment @Chris MJH! Thanks for sharing your hard-won experience!

Luke: I was trying to download your 24 exercises for bass - Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced showing arpeggios and modes. Is that still available? I could not download it from your site. Great exercises. This is something I could do every day to improve my dexterity and fingerboard knowledge. I am glad to see that your site is growing. I am still practicing on a regular basis daily. Two to four hours daily. averaging nearly three hours daily Monday through Friday while the weekends vary. Blessings and keep up the good work. Howard Alexander

Hi, thanks for the great videos on your channel, you're a great help. May I ask what kin of bass you are using? It's really nice. Thank you.

Good stuffs man,i love it! Just started playing bass now,i'm a guitar player.its just the bored,need to learn bass aswell ":D

hi Luke I like your infos. I am a Bass Player too regards Harald

greetings, I am new to the bass. I have a desire to learn. You have my attention. There are many pages that offer this kind of lessen, however, I enjoy your videos. I look forward to learning from you.

U are awesome

This is amazing thank you so much. I consider myself intermediate and have been playing for years on and off but never went full on unfortunately (wish I did). But I’m picking it back up now since meeting a buddy who I jam out with. Your lessons are great. Question; so with these chords, you can kind of make up anything using these as a foundation? Like when it comes to fills and bass licks?

@BecomeABassist

Good question @Ricky Raso - all the arpeggios in the exercise come from the chords of the major key, and you can definitely use them as a starting point if you want to play some fills, licks or solos. I'd recommend checking out this video as well if you want to start doing stuff like that: kzread.info/dash/bejne/jIyptMN8aL3QqLw.html

It's a Spector Euro4 or USA4 with a salted maple (believe it's maple) top.

Luke, new bassist here and absolutely love your channel! For the uninitiated, are these exercises strictly used for finger speed and dexterity, or does it help to know where all of these patterns are second nature?

@franklehouillier8865

It is very valuable to have the entire major scale memorized and all the component triads and 7 chords. I would recommend practicing this while naming the triads and notes as Luke is doing here. A great exercise after that would be to change the order of the chords from C Dm Em F G Am Bdim C to C F Bdim Em Am Dm G C and go in fourths for example and then you are practically walking bass.

+Durchii - Frank is absolutely right! I mention in the video that the exercise can actually help you understand music better and that's exactly what I was talking about. If you're wondering where all the chords and everything come from, check out my Ultimate Guide To The Modes - it'll clear everything up: becomeabassist.com/ug-modes/ By the way +Frank LeHouillier - great variation on the exercise. That would be a real killer too. Thanks for sharing - I'll have to try that one out.

hello, the exercices are based on the harmonisation of the C Major scale declined in forms of seven degrees...chords used are the harmonic extension of the C Major scale...it is not told in the vidéo but it is important to undetstand the "meaning" of that and be "conscius " of what you re playing... good vidéo nevertheless... thanks

I would like to know how the bass solo from hey barbara by IV of spades created or scales he used?

"Please Come Crawl Out Your Window" by Bob Dylan has. similar chord progression haha

thanks bro India

Great exercise, thanks a lot. What is the point of playing alternately major and minor chords? Just for the feeling of how differently they are played?

@BecomeABassist

Good question @Акан Рахметуллин. What I'm playing in this video is all the chords that appear in the key of C major. None of the notes are outside the C major scale. You *could* just play this exercise with 'random' chords as well, but this way, you can also learn how a key is put together, plus it sounds a little more musical.

Hey Luke my little finger didn’t reach 15 and 17 fret of a string.What should I do to fix this.

I’ve seen people play an open string and mute the others Then seen them play an open string and not mute others at all , How do u know when to mute and when not to ! Thanks great vid btw

What would you play, if you wanna try out a new bass ?
