My uncle died a few years ago He loved music and he was very good at the bass His bass' haven't been touched since he died, and my aunt doesn't want to get rid of them I've been playing guitar for a couple years, and I really wanted to play my uncle's bass My aunt is letting me borrow them to learn on Thank you, Marty, for teaching me the basics, so that I can honor my uncle through playing He would've loved to watch your videos, and learn from you
Comment from : @addyjo

I've watch tons of videos about how to play bass and this video was the only one yet to explain clearly how to actually start to play a bass guitarthankyou sir
Comment from : @danielpaulson786

Marty I thank you for your lessons and really learn a lot I would add that the bass strings are the same as 6 through 4 on the guitar All the rules apply, and this has helped me so much Ya dig man

I've owned a Bass for 3 years now, and I haven't been able to get some lessons in my area, but I've already learned more in the ten minutes I've been watching this video, than in the 3 years I've owned my Bass Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise Marty I was just about to give it away to someone who would benefit from it, but I have renewed interest in learning to play it Thanks again, and God Bless you Brother

I have a subscription to marty music I don't recall seeing a section on Bass Guitar :(
Comment from : @Hawkes04

Thanks Marty, I love this lesson! Unfortunately, I went to your channel and found that this is your only bass tutorial ☹️ Are you thinking about adding more bass guitar videos in the future for us bassists? I really enjoy the way you teach and explain in your lesson I hope you make more bass guitar videos for learning

“What if we want to go a half step down from here?” brbr… brbr“Well it doesn’t exist”
Comment from : @brettbinninger-schwartz5706

As a beginner in the literal meaning of the term, not a beginner from another instrument, not a beginner who has learned the basics, but a true beginner, I find it a huge barrier that every bass teacher for beginners chooses songs that are too hard, or that only have an easy riff, but the rest of the song is impossible for a true beginner Can we please start with a song which is slow and easy from beginning to end? Beginners need enough time to get their hands and fingers in position, figure out muting, play along in time and pick the stirngs properly That is a ton to keep track of A song please, that's slow, easy, just quarter notes, beginning to end Not just riffs, not just intros, but a recognizable song easy enough that you could put a bass in the hands of someone who has never played an instrument, and can play along I hope you take this to heart Martybr
Comment from : @DanCourtemanche

I would like to need more of the lesson brI love guitar but don't know any thing on it
Comment from : @FredaLarbi-g9o

i don’t have a bass brI’m still gonna watch this video bralso the strings are easy for me to memorise cus I played the violin…and quit 5 years ago lmao
Comment from : @friedpebbles

On a 6 string guitar the first string is the highest note, closest to the ground Why change it round on the bass?
Comment from : @malcolmlindley4465

I liked it when explained like this That B and E have no sharps no matter what string So the next half step (1 fret up) from E and B are the next letter from the alphabet Let's start with the A string cause its starts from the beginning of the chromatic scale (ABCDEFG) So open A to first fret up is A sharp, next fret is B ( remember B has no sharp) So next fret up is C, next fret up C sharp Next fret is D Next fret is D sharp, next fret is E (Remember E also has no sharp) So next fret is F Next fret is F sharp Next fret is G Next fret is G sharp Next fret is at the 12th fret so its an A again only the octave higher than the open A that we started with and all notes follow what we just learned till the frets run out Hope this helps

Comment from : @dannyelizabeth66

I've got a question for anybody willing to answerbrWhen Marty switched 3-5 using index on 3 and middle on 5, I found myself stretching pretty hard for itbrI've got pretty big hands so I figure this must be a technique thing Any suggestions?

Hello, do you give electronic guitar lessons
Comment from : @LawrenceOcenAdulai

I'm self taught at acoustic guitar (I didn't learn from this channel) but I have been wanting to learn bass, I don't own a bass yet at least, but I wanted to see how hard it was, I've heard good things about your channel so I looked up your bass lessons My choir teacher plays bass in a band and he inspired me to wanna learn any guitar in the first place I will definitely be learning bass from your videos when I get one!
