When you get paid for the TASTE instead of the WASTE. Always great,Nate. (From a drummer!)

I very much enjoyed this video, I'm studying for my grade 7, and I'm very much still learning, I've had to write solos for bass for the last 2 grades. Personally I like to pace the notes like they could be sung by a vocalist. I've had to get my head round the theory so I'm paying notes to the key signature as I know I'll be examined on this. I've done this for Jazz-funk, soul, latin and Metal, it's very satisfying. I'm expected to demonstrate a certain level of technical skill so sometimes put more notes in that I would usually choose, it's just to prove to the examiner that I'm capable of it. I think Nathan is right on the money with his advice, my own solo's are not as busy as my exam solos but I think they have more feeling, you can go nuts on occasions but I think a well delivered development of your main groove can work absolute wonders, you need to let the real you through. :)

Sometimes, less and simpler is more and better!

Knowing your scales and arpeggios makes all the difference. Great tips on locking into vocal and guitar melodies. It’s like make a statement with words. Appropriate choice of words, rhythms, intonation and well timed pauses to let the listener digest what you’ve just said.

Easy for you to say you are a GURU know what,when,how and where to play it, lol LOVE you NATE thanks for the lesson now I can get from that Root note.

awesome great job i love it

Respect Sir❤

Of course you need to know the harmony to "improvise" like he did

Improvisation doesn't imply making something up out of nothing, it's making something new out of something familiar. You don't have to learn the harmony if you don't want to, but then again anyone could pick up an instrument and improvise a solo without harmony

@@tylerlennon9955 improvise without knowing the harmony is something that is used a lot, but it is not ideal. Generally, really well-constructed solos require you to have prior knowledge of the chords, or the ability to immediately perceive what is being played.

good man! 🍷

Wow Dude! Great video!

thank you

It's depending on the genre of performance, Joey De Maio would play "a sting of bumblebee"

good lesson🙂

Cool. :)

That yamaha bass looks badass

I like your "bad" solo.😂

The bass is a BB1024x or BB2024x?? I your Fan NE

What did Village People said to Nathan East? Go West!

What bass model is that?

Ah hah, so that's where I went wrong

Heh, I hope Cliff Burton isn't included in your bad list there! ;-P

Ironically, if you want to be 'memorable', play badly, worse the better 😂 Must be like 25 years ago back in my wayward christian days. My group was guest at this church thing. Local guy on bass constantly abandoned the root trying to be fancy high on the neck with 'chops' he _thought_ he had. I never forgot him it was so bad 😬😵🥴

Nathan went Joey de Maio. Can Joey go East? Doubtful...

Less is more...always.

Chops are only a tool to be musical. When it's all chops its barely musical

I don't like the solo that follows chord changes, lacks independence

SPEAK TO MUCH

true
