Hi, I am a middle aged Japanese. I just got a bass guitar since I wanted to play it when I was young. It will be one of my big new challenges for coming 2023.
I found your channel now. Although I am not good at English, I enjoy your lesson because your explanation is really organized and logical!
Thank you so much! I will try other videos!

I just turned 45 this year and Iāve always wanted to play the bass since I was in high school. Iāve tried several times to get into the bass but I let life get in the way, now that my kids are grown up and donāt need me so much I feel that this is a great time to really get into learning the bass seriously. Your lessons have been and absolute life line for me, Iāve bounced around other sights for information on scale and other fundamentals but none of them have your approach. Iāve found you lessons are easier to follow and I get more mileage from your lessons. I travel for my job so Iām planning to take my bass with me on the road so while I. Sitting on my ass in the hotel after work that so Iāll be prime time for some great practice sessions. Keep the videos coming, thank you.

when I was 18 a long time ago I knew this guy who was a jazz guitarist. I had been playing drums for years but found myself listening to bass more and more. He said he could teach me bass. First lesson was at least two hours long. He explained whole steps half steps then he got right into the 7 modes and the different hand positions for each mode because it helped me understand it by playing it. That was lesson one. over the next few months he expanded with arpeggios, pentatonic scales, playing to chord progressions, what ever. If I wanted to learn a song, I had to go figure it out for myself. and I did. I thought were done when he hit me with harmonic minor, melodic minors and the modes, chord structures and everything else within. all by the numbers within 6 months I could play along to jazz. all because he simplified everything and cut out the bs. of course i used to practice 8 hours a day. That helped

I am well beyond this material but Joshās videos are still fantastic, they crack me up. A friend recently took up bass, completely new to bass and music, and I recommended the Beginner to Badass course as one option as far as paid beginner courses. This is what he went with, is very pleased with it and his progress so far, and couldnāt say enough good things about it. Recommend for anyone who is just starting out.

YES!!! 57 (soon to be 58) and just bought a bass, it is time! I am a retired professional drummer from Los Angeles and after 3 lower back surgeries, 7 on each foot, 1 on each thumb and 5 others, playing my e-kit seems more pain than pleasure most days. I have spent 4 decades playing with bass players and have always been attracted to the bass. I naturally hear every bass line no matter the genre and am looking forward to the journey and am VERY blessed to have found this channel!!ā¤š

I've been wanting to learn Bass since I was a teenager, but for one reason or another (lack of money in the early years, excuses in the latter) I never did it.
Today my beginner Bass pack arrived and I've been following this lesson (badly). Will keep practicing and hopefully not neglect Mrs B too much!

As I presume other commenters are stating, I also have purchased Joshās course. I am about two thirds through the lessons. I cannot say enough about the course, but I am admittedly shocked at how much I have learned about music generally. Iād recommend the course to anyone, and do so anytime the subject arises.

I really donāt know how I was missing out on this channel. Iāve been playing for 8 years now and like to think of myself as a decent bassist, but Iāve never taken any lessons. Your videos are showing me that thereās a LOT of basic fundamentals I need to work on, which is a great thing! Your explanation is so thorough, these are incredibly well-made. Thank you for being streamlined, watchable, funny, and not having any of those YouTube ads!
Sidenote about ads: nobody is gonna get upset if you plug your own product. Iād be more than happy to watch you plug your product in the video for 30 seconds rather than seeing a toilet paper ad or something for 10. I think everyone here is really impressed with your channel and wants you to succeed. We donāt mind the ads!!
