I know what you’re saying, he does go on a bit but he knows his stuff

This guy is my fave Bassist Youtuber. If I ever need to learn a cover song accurately I always check his vids first.....

Agreed. Troy is a helluva bass player and a massive Rush geek. This was the first song I learned from his channel. He has since re-done it....

I must admit I’d not been aware of this guy until stumbling across some Wilcock bass demo videos yesterday. 

I saw Zero 7 many moons ago but hadn’t realised this is the guy that played bass for them.

Anyway, my new favourite bass player... until the next one!

juliaplaysgroove. She is excellent! Not just for a young 'un either.

Also Bass Buddha. He mainly reviews basses but there are some good interviews too.

His demeanor is like a slice of mindfulness and I always come away feeling a bit more smiley and relaxed.

Lately I've watched my channel

 

also my friend Adam Gordon

 

Bass The World

Bobby Vega. Just ‘cause he’s Bobby Vega Really. Not particularly instructional, though instructive nonetheless

Loved watching Bobby Vega at the London Bass Show a few years ago.  Great talent.

There was a YouTube video, showing Bobby playing a J bass, and his Modulas fretless, I think advertising EMG pickups but I can't find it anywhere now.  Did I imagine that or is it still about?

+1 for Bass The World. Informative, great playing in many different styles and funny without resorting to schtick:

I also like Tim Starace from time to time... Mostly because of his facial expressions:

I have seen most of the juggler videos referenced here but don't spend any time with them. In short, great to watch but invariably not so great to listen to. I think it is great that people push the envelope but most of this stuff is of no use to me whatsoever. . 

[Romeo2]

lots of great channels suggested so far, cheers all!

 

if you scroll down to videos from years ago, Marcin Pendowski did a lot of really good demos, no talking, his own (very good) groovy lines and different techniques so you can hear what the basses can sound like (warning, GAS inducing stuff!):

sorting out some of my YouTube videos I came across this one I had saved, a really good cover of stomp .

A great collaborative rock cover of Blinding Lights.

I don’t think I’ve seen him before, his channel looks good, there’s some good workout exercises on there too 👍

[BadHands]

I thoroughly enjoy Scott's Bass Lessons, which has great content considering it's free. I know a lot of people get annoyed by the general you-tubeyness of it, but the guy's gotta stay ahead of the curve and the info he's giving out is great and practical.

Adam Neely is less bass-focused now, but taking a deep dive into a random musical concept has been really eye-opening for me.

2 non bassists who I've picked up a tremendous amount of theory stuff from, are Rick Beato and NewJazz. Their videos have been really practical and entertaining to watch, as I find theory can be a dry subject to approach.

There is a guy Marcel Stranis. He is also not so instructional, but he knows to play and do it so relaxing. I enjoy every one of his videos

Apart from Talking Bass -the only bass tutor I've signed up to - the only music platforms I follow are Rick Beato and Andertons. RB's is an excellent platform and he's non judgmental, giving a fair hearing to current pop as well as rock and jazz. Really good on theory too, without making sound as dry as chaff. He also knows how to interview as does the Captain on Andertons. I like the product reviews on Anderton's and the banter between the regulars.

Not definitive but....

I really like Rick Beato. Such a passion for music, which comes through on whatever topic he’s covering and episode he does.

I just can’t get on with Andertons. I’ve tried but figure it’s probably not for me - I like the main fella (the Captain) but the zane level for some of the others is a little too high for me!

Peach Guitars, on the other hand, are someone I really like watching - for me they strike a nice balance between seriousness and being fun and engaging. The lad (Jack) that does the guitar reviews is a terrific player...

Not strictly bass (but neither is Rick Beato who has been mentioned) is Warren Huarts produce like a pro.

Loads of cool content & he’s got some really cool bass tracking videos with Billy Sheehan and others.

He’s now doing a video series ‘songs that changed music’ which is essentially the same as Beatos wmtsg

For some really good live-studio recordings I've been really enjoying guitarist Martm Miller's page: https://www.youtube.com/c/MartinMillerGuitar

He's produced some superb footage with exceptional audio playing everything from 80's mash-ups to playing through Dark Side Of The Moon live - and much more. Full band and guests.
