    Love your teaching, and love Victor Wooten. I have his books. My background is Classical and Scottish Folk Music, and I am studying your exercises with great pleasure. Caterpillar is a great idea. You convinced me to use Om Bandana Two Bandana. Om is the sound of one hand clapping!

    Thank you Sir. Just picked up my first bass just over a week ago and found your channel. First reggae riddim i ever heard as a 13 yo boy had me hooked and changed how I listen to music forever. Looking forward to the journey recreating the infectious grooves with your help 🤙

    Late to the party, here. I play with a plectrum (which probably enrages purists). To get a good round, heavy tone, I play near the bridge and palm mute a bit. Also there's a bit of a habit to get with the plectrum, using a moderately thick one (0.80mm tortex for me), and holding it a little bit loose between the fingers to soften the attack.

    A drummer buddy of mine sent me this since reggae has always eluded me. Conceptually I've always understood the role of the bass in the genre but the way break down making a line in this one has finally made it start to click for me, definitely diving deep into anything else you've got now!

    Hello ! good job ! i'm a fan, i'm a subscriber. have you heard the sly and robbie album recorded for a french singer in 1979? The bass created is excellent...good listening. kzread.info/dash/bejne/ooN8l9BvhdHMf5s.htmlsi=YkhI3HcFkILypHD5 and a second album was released in 1981 by the same artist . kzread.info/dash/bejne/pKNnvMhrdbnQqLw.htmlsi=QpCaGJmlDLz2md9z

    The way Robbie comes in one beat later than Flabba has such a huge impact on feel. Both are excellent, but what a difference one beat of space can make.

    To fix your timing try to focus on the rhythm and not the notes. Most important thing is rhythm. I have a course coming soon so keep an eye out.

    UB40 was so recognizable. I don't play any instrument well, jus a bit, but bass is one of my favourites especially reggae basslines. I found basslines of Gregory Isaac's music so very recognizable and i love it!

  • @donstrumental8905
    @donstrumental890515 күн бұрын

    It depends on where I’m recording. I’m not fussed on which brand. I have recorded with D.I, sometimes straight out of the amp head D.I, sometimes straight into the audio interface. Not something that I focus on too much.
