I'm a half pint, i got a kid's bass when i was a kid learning except i never grew much and i kwptthe kid's bass lol so hese fret patterns are wild to mebri rarely touch frets 1-3 and focus on the frets i can reach ahaha but i make it work usually play up near the neck get it all nasty and rough soundingbri run a guitar distortion pedal through a 300w amp with lot's of low endbrnobody even notices i don't play lowwwww

Have an opportunity to be in a band and recently purchased a bass guitar They are eager for me to learn it and so am I I did play the electric guitar when I was younger Currently 51 and if I continue persuing it, I should see improvements by age 53, God willing
Comment from : @godwilling777

This is so helpful As a visual learner, this one for me is the easiest way to learn bass at 38 I hope it' s not too late for me😭😅😅🥲🥲

Thanks to this video I just realized Drakes rebuttal to Kendrick using “B sharp” as a bar is horribly incorrect
Comment from : @av1182

Super video, thank you
Comment from : @sliezsky

Thanks for your tips I've always struggled and realized just hearing multiple methods will work Also I already remember 013 023 023 024 how clever!brbrAlso noticed fret 7 is BEAD going down ill have to add that to my tricks too 😃

Comment from : @bassistx

Hi I'm a beginner and I want to change the whole set of 4 strings on my bass, but I keep breaking the E string as I try to tune it It breaks when the tuner displays E flat What am I doing wrong ?
Comment from : @JeanMichel-vh7hn

OK, the fretboard part that I'm struggling with is above 14th fret I never knew my bass had frets 21 to 24 brSee bass line to Simon and Garfunkel's "America" for details

Picked up the bass 2 months ago and was struggling the entire time to map out the fretboard Saw this vid and had the first 4 frets mapped out in minutes Thank you SO MUCH for this It's time to become absolutely unstoppable at this instrument now xD

I m soon to be 41, and got a Bass for an early bday gift Been hooked on tutorials" Bass is the instrument to the soul " - Daniel Oiyageh
Comment from : @DreamersAwakenStudio

A print out would have helped though, only thing because I could hardly read my scribbled notes as i watchedIf i ever figure out power point im gonna post the notes and credit you of course
Comment from : @johngalvao1969

This is singularly the most plain explanation and pattern association version of memorizing the bass fretboard that Ive ever seen After watching your video and running through it a few times, Ive actually got it for the most parteven that last little L shape with DGCF I just think about how people downtune to that tuning and we are at the 12th fret so it works for me,,,thank you so much AS soon as I get paid I am going to buy you a few cups of coffee bro!!!
Comment from : @johngalvao1969

Like your teaching method but not the comedy Stick to the bass and forget about being cute!!
Comment from : @CatfishLove

Tom’s Plaice of Bass Seems fishy
Comment from : @garrettlowell7637

Ngl you lost me completely
Comment from : @Theduck8concrete

Great beginner's lesson indeed The octave game really helps master the fretboard indeed I've used a metronome , starting with A, (play all the A's, move on to B, gets tricky if you don't have it mastered, lol) working up to G
Comment from : @Bloozguy

Comment from : @pianoman6639

Walking up a street, all the side streets on your left are sharps Walking back down the same street, the same side streets, now on your right, are flats That's how I teach it Raymondo
Comment from : @raymondthompson1476

why not putting thi drawing horizontally just like the strings, you may not realise but for begginers reading this vertical and having your guitar horizontal is quite a challenge
Comment from : @sorianomariod

Comment from : @phoebegadores7583

So as I go down the frets I'm also going down the alpha bet from ABCDEFG back to A Is that correct? I'm learning
Comment from : @WDStock_man

Why when your on E string in the 1st fret when you get the E string in 3rd fret the letter changes? Or 5 fret E string, the letter changes
Comment from : @WDStock_man

So… What if one’s hand isn’t big enough to have one finger per fret? Even with my short scale I don’t have enough reach for one fret per finger
