You put it so well! This video is probably one of the best on the internet explaining walking bass. As an internet only taught bassist, I greatly appreciate this.

I agree Eli! I am primarily a guitar guy but am getting very serious about bass! New to Luke and feel that his lessons are in the league of Steve Stine"s lessons whom I feel is such a fantastic guitar teacher! I made a strict rule for myself when I put a bass in my hands is to think like a bassist and not like a guitarist! Luke is helping me stay in that framework!

That "huge ugly leap" is actually used a lot too, it's kinda cool when used sparingly. Just something one shouldn't overuse and be careful when to do it

I love that you put that Tabs and notes on screen. its hard for new players to keep replaying the same 10 sec clip trying to learn the pattern without the tabs.

I've ben playing these 5 formulas over and over and found that by counting 1-2-3-4 as I played. it helped me see that every time I was starting on the root. This was a sea change lesson for me. Thank you Luke.

Thanks' Luke for sharing your musical knowledge with us great lessons.

You explain things so well for beginners and make it so interesting to play bass! Thank you for this video!

Walking bass was a technique I have needed to work on in my playing for a long time. Your tutelage has made it easy for me to understand and experiment with! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

That was surely the clearest explanation of walking bass I have seen!!! Thank you very much Luke!!!

thanks Luke for your great instruction. You break it down so simple. You are a great instructor. Mr.Jazz

Thank you so much! You are a TRUE help for beginners. Thank you again.

Wow, I’ve been playing guitar for 40+ years but I’m falling in love with bass thanks to your help.

Thank you Luke. I find your lessons very useful. What I appreciate in particular are very clear tabs and notes provided to learn from by a beginner like me..

Luke, I have listened to all the KZread guys, and want to say yours will help me move forward. Its precise, no showy "stuff" and doesn't loose me in those who want to show me their knowledge of music theory complexities. I appreciate you and looking forward as I restart my bass learning.

Very cool! Loved this lesson Luke!❤

This is such a fabulous explanation/demonstration of walking bass! Makes me want to shout, laugh, dance. I first viewed this video and learned the techniques Luke is teaching here back when it was posted, and since then, everyone I play with thinks I'm a friggin' jazzer!

Wow, what an amazing lesson! For a begining bass player and first look at walking bass lines, I learned so much! I'll be back here often for the next few weeks! Thank you!!!

This is great; it can be adapted to other genres, too. It's the most useful lesson yet!

Wow!! As a fairly new bass player watching numerous videos on bass playing, this tutorial is one of the best!! Great job!!!

Just perfect! Thank you!!! With that approach: the secret of bass lines are revealed 😘

from Argentina, muchas gracias por tus videos, son increiblemente instructivos.

Wow. Thank you so much. Finally a lesson that I can easily understand. I looked so many you tube films. This is the first I really understand and have quick successes. 👍👍👍🙂

Nice and clear to grasp. Nothing new under the sun here but the communication and professionalism helps make the info more accessible.

So simple to understand! Thank you!!

Thank you so much! This approach was the eye-opener after the technical videos I watched before!

At first I felt difficult how to play bass but now I enjoy watching your video to get more insight because you make it easier for beginners to play

Thanks for the lesson, Luke! It was very helpful!

From an old has-been bassist, a most excellent lesson! Formulas 4 and 5 are a great start to sounding like a jazz bass player.

So much great free downloadable content! really finding this so helpful, thanks Luke

Excellent!!! Luke!! You're a Master!!!

Thanks, my dream of playing walking Jazz bass has come to reality. Thanks to You!!!!

As an intermediate guitar player I've recently purchased a bass. All these tabs are brilliant plus the scales with a bit of tweaking I'm sure I will have many sounds to play through my loop pedal 👍

Thanks for your super lessons and downloads. Helping me immensely.

Brilliant! Thank you so much!

Thanks this is very helpful to get me started! I need to work on some jazz basslines for a new band I'll be playing with and I've mostly played just bluegrass/folk/Irish music on double bass before.

Great lesson. Subscribed

Amazing lesson, thanks! Now I have homework to do!

It took forever to find lessons on walking basslines that made any sense. Thanks for breaking this down to a level I can understand

Super useful video:) I love the way you organize the content in your videos.. it's really easy to follow ... Thank you!

this is so simple and well explained thank you

Thanks Luke, for a super lesson. You've given me the courage to finally tackle the bass.😊

I play classical guitar but now dabbling with the bass for recording purposes, finding your channel super useful, appreciate the work , thanks 🙏🏻

Great video, really. Perfect for people who dont have yet a solid basis on musical theory, very accesible.

Outstanding...I learned a lot with this video

Played bass since HS (teen rockband), church gospel and always wanted to do bass walking but never could. Until seeing how you did it on this video. Now I gotta get working on it. Thank you!

Very clear, thanks. The other thing you can add to the mix is instead of always going 1,2,3,5 you could come down from the octave above 8,5,3,2 etc and like the other techniques mixing up what you do as Luke says. Keep hearing about these common progressions but most of the pieces our swing band play seem to be more complicated!

Excellent teacher, excellent explanation tq

This is really helpful. Thank you!

thank you Luke very useful lesson walking bass made easy !!

I love ur 5 plug and play walking patterns lesson. U are a great player/teacher. Thx for all u doo. dUg-Montesano, WA/USA

Nice explanation and pacing of lesson.

Am so appreciate for ur lesson

What a great lesson for us newbies! I love the patient, repetitive and well-explained way that you presented the material. I will definitely look for your other lessons. Thanks so much.

I found backing tracks to be extremely helpful. I've started gaining speed using long backing tracks and once I hear the melody I've got it.

Fantastic!! Thanks Luke!

Thanks man, you dont know how much this helped me

This is VERY Helpful!!! Thanks!! I've been playing for 7 months and am wanting to learn walking. This is very good.

Thank you ..great teacher!!!

Its some of the best bass lesson I've seen

Спасибо за книжку. Благодаря вам, всё встало на свои места в моей голове.

Very nice keep them coming!

I played trumpet for almost 10 years, but I've started playing bass and I had no experience with chords and chord progressions and needing to understand them But learning the patterns of the fret board and watching this helped me use the music theory skills I already had from trumpet, being able to remember the scales and transfer them onto the bass! Thanks !!

Great job, thanks man

Pondering Luke. I am learning bass. You teach well. The Bible says, A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance and doeth good like a medicine and he that winneth souls is wise.
