This lady knows her stuff I wish I was as good as her as a life lone mechanic my hands just won't do the fancy stuff I'm very basic but her tips is some of the stuff I learned on my own like the use of the thumb to mute and never playing open strings I wish I could tell her how helpful she really is
I am guitar player and working on an album.... I am learning bass. I can write catchy rhythms and solos on guitar, but I know the heart and soul of a band is the bass and drums (yeah as a self absorbed guitarist that is hard to say, but I know it's the truth). I have so struggled with writing strong bass lines. You have been far and away the most helpful concerning bass I have come across. Thank you so much for sharing... From an arpeggio, slashing guitarist.... much love and thank you!
This may sound silly, but i'm struggling to discern what notes, strings and frets you're actually playing as your technique is so smooth - some pictures or diagrams would be really helpful for morons like me
The electric bass is a wonderful harmonic instrument. It is not limited to just melodic, arpeggiated root notes outlining chord patterns for the band. Nor does one have to apologize for playing it in a manner that blends its harmonic capabilities with those of the other band members. As with anything, it is best applied tastefully with its role as the foundational groove anchor for the band, while simultaneously adding the color of an additional voice to the musical composition. Good bass players know and encourage this in any serious student wishing to take their bass playing to a higher level, than the droll monotonic dronings of repetitive root note flutter.👑🎸🎵
Thanks for the lesson! I've wanted to know what to do when the band's playing a chord. I have a theory book that helped me understand what you're teaching.
Excellent lesson. My only critisim is in playing the minor chord (m), the flatted third should be realized by forming a major chord, and placing the index finger, one fret lower in tone. Forming an index-finger and third-finger relationship between the root tone, and the flatted third. The two-tone chord should be viewed in this mannor for all chords as a building block, up and down the neck, with the root tone being the lower note, and the flatted third the higher note. Rock it.
Very nice the E. Position but there is the bar chord position like a guitar uses 1,5, and octave 1, 5, 8, index finger and ring finger and pinky finger.
What’s the story with that bass??? Is it a Musicmaster with the pickup replaced with a P? I’d love to hear about it. I’m into the Fender short scale basses.
Nice bass. Cool color. Mustang body, Musicmaster neck. Well, I don't know about always playing the root instead of the 3rd or 5th... it all depends on whether you want to tick your guitarist or keyboard player off. If you really want to tick them off, throw a seventh in there on the downbeat. :-) kidding, of course. Great info!
Beautiful bass. I have a few questions. What make/model/size strings are on that bass? What make/model is that pickup? Did that bass come with that pickup? I’ve never seen a Musicmaster with a P bass pup.
Uhhmm.... Forgive me Dear.... But.... in your explanation as to what a "major 7" interval is, you state (at 7:13) that the major seventh is a note that is just "1/2 step ABOVE the root note in the octave. I think that you may have meant to say that the major 7 is the note that is just 1/2 step BELOW the root in the octave....As in the instant case, that B natural is in fact 1/2 step below the root note "C". No? Otherwise, very nice explanation of arpeggios as they lay on the fretboard. Please continue..
I don't really think starting with the root note Is a bass player's most important job. I know this is a basic course but that's just not true what about inversions what about modulating

@@pgpete Thanks, I thought I was losing hearing in my left ear
Yessssss

I'm from Russia, and I do like your English! Perfect, clear, and pleasure to hear you, thanks!

I look forward to more videos.Keep it up!
Yonit's Tutorials are always spot on, very useful thank you
Excellent. Just one thing I noticed about the audio: the left channel is missing and the volume on your voice is too low.
Nice video! Macca gives you a lot of bass arpeggio examples in Beatle songs, and they're easy to remember
This was a total eye opener for me. Thanks

Musicmaster bass, produced between 1971 and 1981. Who knew that?
Excellent and I like the bass on the left and speech on the right - you can set your own balance 👍
So what are the 3 and 5 notes in every cord you didn't tell us you should do another video explaining all the notes in 1 3 5 in the cords
Very nice the E. Position but there is the bar chord position like a guitar uses 1,5, and octave 1, 5, 8, index finger and ring finger and pinky finger.
Something wrong with my left ear...🤔
Thanks good to learn ,I’m starting playing Bass in my church.
I am also! I love her lessons!
Excellent explanations.
Your excellent I can’t wait to progress in my beginning
Cool lesson..just started bass...that made a lot of sense.
Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us...
Well explained. Thank you!
Good explanation. Just need a little clarification on which frets to press for the 7 chords major 7 and flat 7th.
Yonit is so cool!! I wish I lived in NY.
Hey, great tutorial - thanks!

watch how good her left hand finger positioning is, :) thats real technique

What a beautiful bass! Is that a precursor to the Mustang?
Beautiful bass. I have a few questions. What make/model/size strings are on that bass? What make/model is that pickup? Did that bass come with that pickup? I’ve never seen a Musicmaster with a P bass pup.
James Arguello I was wondering the same thing! I wasn’t aware that Musicmaster were reissued with a P pickup in orange???
You are an amazing teacher (and bass player)
Great.it is useful for me.thank you.God bless you.
Hello, how can I get to send you a message for lessons. (other than you tube)
Thank you your videos are inspiring
Great video, Thanks.
Love that bass! Year? Musicmaster?
Thanks!! You’re the best 💛

I noticed that also. Perhaps she meant 1/2 step up the fretboard.
John Dermont I noticed that as well...but easily seen as a misquote since she moved her hand down the neck as she said it. 😃
I learned something!🙌
Hi Yonit,
Your voice comes only on the right side f the audio.
Very well explained.
Can you please help draw for me what you mean on a charter paper
Nice explain
Excellent tutorial
Thank you Thank you
Thanks again! Good stuff.
is this a small scale bass mam? what is the diff bet this small size in the standard size sounds? thanks

Yonit your awesome. 🙏
2:04 Continue with ... G A# C D# ... and it's "Money" by Pink Floyd.
thanks
this was cool, thanks!
Why don't yo call out the name of the minor third note?
A short scale precision bass
Your good young lady very good!!!!!!!
Chyea....!!👍🏾😎😏💯
Luvely!
I don't really think starting with the root note Is a bass player's most important job. I know this is a basic course but that's just not true what about inversions what about modulating
8:22
a pretty woman who plays the bass. all's right with the world
I prefer short scale basses
Do Play Salsa Music
🔥🔥🔥
You are not playing a major 7th you were playing a diminished 8
According to Google: The diminished octave is enharmonically equivalent to the major seventh. Go figure.
Me thinks I see a Brazilian rosewood fingerboard.
Yonit casa comigo?!
