MAN! Relating the bass to the piano keys was a genius move and makes sooo much sense! It’s taken away the “just memorize” approach and conceptualizes everything. 💯

Way back in high school my guitar teacher was teaching us how to play acoustic guitar and she taught us to think of it this way to memorize the strings: EADGBE “Eddie Ate Dynamite Good Bye Eddie”. That is STILL stuck in my head 10 years later.

Josh, I knew all this literally before you were born, yet you somehow made it fresh and engaging, and had me playing along. I spent money on another guy's course because his content impressed me--but he's boring, which makes it hard to stay with it. Viewers, don't make the same mistake. If you get bored easily, and have a hard time staying with things, Josh can help take you from beginner to badass. (No, he didn't pay me.)

Thank you. As a beginner bass player and a former teacher of 35 years, I appreciate the content and structure of your lessons. I played my first song, High and Dry, with you. It is part of my warm up.

About 20 years ago, I had a motorcycle accident. After I healed up a bit, I figured playing a Bass would be good PT for my formerly broken hand. It worked great for my hand, for my playing, not so much. About a year later, my son "loaned" my Bass to a friend of his, and I haven't seen it since. Now that I'm retired, I got bit by the Bass Bug again. On a whim, I bought a used one online, sight unseen for $50, (identical to the "E-bay" Bass Josh played in his 5 cheap Bass Guitar video). Thanks to Josh, I've learned more about music and playing Bass Guitar in the past week than I ever have before. Now I'm shopping around for a good used J Bass - something that actually has a name brand on it... Thank-you Josh, you are the BEST! You make this easy to understand, entertaining, and most of all, FUN!

i played guitar solo for 14 years and never undertand the note theory. this year i wanna try to play bass bcause got boring with my guitar. After watching this video, i learn both the note theory& picking the bass. only in 19 minutes. nice video. so clear!

In my beginner book it had a little phrase called “Big Cats Eat Fish” to remember that there was no flat or sharp notes between B,C & E,F. Helped me immensely!

I bought a Bass 5 years ago and I've paid for Bass lessons...After watching this video, in less than 20 minutes, I've learnt and understood from you for free, what I've not learnt in 5 years of paying for classes. This is by far the best Bass lessons on the WWW :)

I was 14 when I had my first bass lesson (48 years ago!). The teacher told me, “Don’t memorize the fretboard, FEEL it.” I can’t tell you how much that stunted my progress as a bass player. And how embarrassing it was whenI first tried jamming with others! Your lessons are, hands down, the easiest on-ramp to playing the bass. Genius really. Even at my ripe age I’m learning a ton. Keep it up.

I don’t really comment on KZread, but I just felt compelled to share my experience here. I’m 22, just bought my first bass 2 days ago after a while of feeling an urge to play, loving the bass lines dearly in the songs I love and listen to most. I started guitar lessons in 2021, bought my electric and everything, it felt great and I did it for a few months, but I lost motivation to continue oddly enough… Tried picking it back up again a few weeks ago, but again wasn’t feeling it. Kept fighting the urge to play bass even though I’ve had such a desire to, due to various reasons, such as hearing from some people, “Learning guitar first before bass is essential,” which I found now isn’t necessarily true. Decided to take the leap of faith and try bass, and I am loving the sound so much already and feel so fulfilled. Your lessons help so freaking much for people who don’t have the opportunity (whether it be time or financial) to take in-person lessons from a teacher, like myself at the moment. You explain things so incredibly well, and I feel like a curious kid with a lot of wonder, watching this and being able to translate the keys on the piano to the fretboard. You’re an amazing teacher and your pacing and humor just adds to it, thank you so, so much for these videos (from myself and everyone else watching this pursuing bass for the first time!) My motivation to keep playing is tenfold! 💗✨🥹

You are seriously blowing my mind. I just bought a bass during Black Friday and just went with tabs (where it shows numbers and stuff). I looked at a few things for beginners, but this is the first one where literally everything made sense to me. You are making it so easy on this video, and I have to thank you for it. Thanks!

I know this theory almost too well to be able to explain it clearly to a student. Not sure that even makes sense? I am currently teaching the next generation...my son how to play. Your tutorial makes it very easy to understand the fundamentals and breaks it down in a simple and clean methodology for finding root notes, memorizing how sharp/ flat works and when and how to play these notes. Very well done! Inside of just 20 mins you have found a way to take what took me many lessons of non-usable theory and turned it into getting right to a jam session. Exactly WHAT EVERYONE wants to do. Jam! Thanks!

If you incorporate the C on the fifth fret of the g string and play both of the C's, F's, and G's during that practice jam, you can get interesting results.

never really got the hang of fret notes until today, the piano logic really helped out especially with the explanations and examples

Thanks, I can't read sheet music in any way or shape, this is a good concise point I wish Josh, or in another video

this was my very first bass lesson and it was super helpful, thank you!

Welcome to the bass family!

ive been playing for YEARS and this is the first video to help me find my notes!! thank you so much!!

When I was playing bass, I actually just got a chart that had all the notes on the fret board. I did not want to just learn tabs, 0 is not a note, I wanted to be a bit more educated about my instrument. But what you just showed on this video is a very smart way of learning music rather than just looking at a chart and seeing where the notes are and remembering. This is using music theory and knowing where notes are and why they are there. I really do appreciate you video here.

You’re really a very good educator. I picking up the bass again after several years away and you’re making it much easier. Thank you.

Thank you, glad to help!

This was amazing. I just restarted learning bass and in this one video I fully learned the notes on the fret very easily. Feels like I just learned magic. Forever thankful and will be watching all of your videos on my new journey.

Excellent video. The first thing I noticed is the black background. That makes it so easy on the eyes. You are a great teacher and cover everything in great detail. Keep up the good work.

Like someone else said, explaining things as they relate to piano keys is brilliant. Thanks for making this video!

This NEEDS to be the first video anyone who's new to bass/music should watch. Thanks so much!
