Well they are awful but thats kind of the whole point, its musical comedy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair to him I think he has found his niche and that's showing off his frankly rediculous chops. The dude is out of this world from a technical stand point, and with how creative he is probably from any musical metric you want to use. Whether that is to your taste is where it is subjective. Also the "lose yourself" video he just dropped today is mind blowing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would it not ? do you seriously think this dude is coming at it from a perspective "oh look at me I can improve on the original" ?.

He is a monster player no doubt about it, a genuine virtuoso, and highly entertaining to boot. A know a lot of "serious" musician rag on him and davie504 but these are the guys who are getting the attention from the youtube generation of kids. I mean davie504 has nearly 10 million subs, that astonishing for a niche musical interest, only slightly less than BBC news !.

Hobbayne Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 (edited) I have to take my hat off to The Geordie Bassist. He actually done this Jam song that I requested personally 😁 Edited September 21, 2021 by Hobbayne 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s expanded my still limited knowledge of musicianship no end. He adds lots of tidbits about stuff like that into the main idea of the lessons. Brown Mark (played with Prince) has a YouTube channel and his lessons are great because he’s a good laugh and teacher: 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 I like this guy, Fernando Rosa. This account seems to have gone quiet — I've been told he's still posting on Instagram, which I don't have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggaebass Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Not a favourite but for a change I’ve been learning, Good Times by chic, and I stumbled across this channel , it’s all different songs with no bass which is great to play over, I even tried the Unforgiven by Metallica 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although it's clear he's mainly a guitarist he has a good presentational style and has put up some good 'shows' on great cheap/budget basses and guitars I reckon I could go into Dagans shop with a fiver in my pocket and come out with a Les Paul standard. He could sell sand to the Arabs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you want to see more of, what do you want to see less of? Are short five minute videos touching on the key areas better for you than 15-20 minute offerings that go in to greater detail? (How to use something or more available sound examples) Please quote me and comment as I (like I am sure all videographers and vloggers) would be interested to find out! Original music with full band backing including real drums, no play alongs or "covers." 3-5 minutes tops, with very minimal talking if any. You have 15-20 seconds to convince me to keep watching, use it wisely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humour is good. I think if you’ve something interesting to say, keep it in the 5-20 min range, entertain (a bit) and have prepared well for the session, you’ll have a decent chance of views and likes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ossyrocks Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Well, as bass noob, I’ve just read this thread from the top and subscribed to numerous channels. I think I’ve enough to keep me busy for a couple of years! Some I’d heard of before, but not subscribed, some are very new to me. Thanks chaps, I do love Basschat.

ezbass Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 I really like Thomann’s, Julia Hofer. She also has her own channel. A great player with a wonderful enthusiasm. Taking on some Anthony Jackson on a fretless… Even playing on a train! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
