Ian, Scott and Sharon!!!! Thank You again for allowing me to share a little bit of me to your audience! I'm grateful for the connections made and I look forward to working with you all more in the future!!!
Thank you Justin for show your self out there I been fallowing you for almost 15 years and you are my example as bass player musician on gospel more than other gospel bass player. keep doing more videos 👊 and stay bless my Brother clean clear and precise ill take that as my lesson
Thanks for the great interview! Can you tell me which Album did you mention exactly? There is Greg Howe, Dennis Chambers and Victor Wooten but I can not find with Richard Bona.. Even on youtube there is no video of them...
When Justin Raines said that he spent a year on his double thumb technique before he went public, he served up a big dose of perspective on the difference between being able to play a few licks and really have a clean technique.
The way Scott and Ian are so gracious and respectful to Justin and all of the players they interview is so awesome to see. They show so much respect to these bassists!
Justin is not only one of the most skilled, gifted, and knowledgeable bassists(and drummers) in the business who has mastered his craft, but he's also an intelligent, humble, and chill dude!!! Everything he plays is a bass masterclass and he's a masterclass of playing fills without overplaying and being a distraction! He reminds me of the late great Aaron Spears who played some INSANE EXTRATERRESTRIAL drum fills and SOME HOW NEVER MISSED THE ONE!!! Yes, he plays some incredible basses but HE makes his basses SING!!! Thank you for an OUTSTANDING INTERVIEW!!! I'm inspired every time I see Justin play and hear him speak!!! Thank God for Justin Raines!!!
Absolutely man! Just wanna throw Matt Ramsey (Kirk Franklin’s bassist)if u didn’t know about him. That guy and Justin Raines are easily top 3 along with Sharay Reed in my opinion. Their playing styles are different but Matt is super melodic with his playing, picking and fills. Check him out if u haven’t!
I notices that he keeps his thumb anchored on the B string yet he keeps the other strings from ringing. I play like that too. (just not nearly as well). Is he using the right hand pinky and the ring finger to mute? I have not been able to make that work, and the floating thumb technique throws me off too.
@@gimmeagig When I switched from 4-string to 5 and 6-string bass, it took me a while and a lot of practice to adjust to the floating thumb technique. It's automatic now even when I play a 4-string. It takes putting in the work and patience.
I had the pleasure of meeting Justin a few years ago. I'd been following him for a few years prior to that. He really disproved the "Never meet your heros" thing. What an incredibly kind, and humble person! Truly inspiring. Thank you for doing this interview, great questions all the way through.
The real-deals like Justin are always the most humble, encouraging and supportive musicians out there, they are always so generous with their knowledge and do everything in their power to make the whole thing as least intimidating/overwhelming as possible so that you can get there too, imo it's the ultimate act of love towards an aspiring musician, what an amazing soul this guy is!
Justin, such respect! I pray for a quick recovery from your health issues and a new kidney soon brother. You are such a bass inspiration. Thanks Scott and Ian. Your interviews are a real blessing.
Justin's MTD Saratoga always sounds so clean and well balanced no matter where he is on the neck. I know part of it is just his play-style, but not every bass signal comes out that even throughout the frequency range. Sounds killer!
Such a great perspective about the “no short cuts!” What most people don’t realize about all the professional musicians traveling is the thousands of hours of hard work and practicing and sacrifices they have made to be where they are and play how they play! People just want to know the secret but it’s hard work! Justin is so amazing and so nice!
Thanks so much you two for a great interview. Ian, I’m 67 years young and still striving on the bass, this was so inspiring. Justin you are such an inspiration. God Bless and thank you for all of your creativeness.🙏
Man, I wish I had had Justin as a teacher when I started playing. Aside from his excellent practical advice, he has such a gentle, encouraging vibe. 😎♥️
Would not matter at all. Music is music right. Gospel Jazz Blues Rock Reggae Punk. Its like when people say Black music, music has no colour 😊 @fross1203
Greetings! I want to first thank you all for this wonderful and inspiring interview with Justin Raines. I just want to say that I learned a lot from Justin Raines and I really appreciate his humbleness. I can now put in my practice routine some of his wisdom. Again, I just wanted to truly thank you.
What a beautiful humble man. Just a great inspiration! I found myself smiling at so many of his drops of great tips and techniques. Like you said what a treat! God bless you Justin! I learned so much with just my ears today.
I don't normally comment to any video here but thank you SBL and Ian for taking time with one my bass heroes. All I can say is, I WANT MORE FROM JUSTIN!!!! ❤️
Beautiful interview, lots of nuggets/gems. He's a very good Bass Guitarist. His feel and fills remind me of Anthony Jackson; keeping the groove locked yet playing incredible fills. Great that you recognized my friend John Blackwell (RIP) and Richard Bona, great Musicians who I had the honour of hosting here 👏🏿🖤 Get well soon Brotha Justin, Music needs you 🙏🏿 Greetings from Uganda 🇺🇬👊🏿🖤
Watching videos on Scott's Bass Lessons is like watching a good movie for the first time. It is quite enjoyable, informative, entertaining and educational, even without popcorn.
So glad to see Justin being featured in these interviews!!! I love hearing his story, development as a musician and at the same time staying so humble. Thank you Scott and Ian.
We've actually done several of Israel's songs at my church and I've had the honor of playing bass on those songs. I have so much fun doing it. I don't do it nearly as much justice as Justin does being the originator, but man it's awesome to see the master at work here! Such a big fan!
Hey Scott, Now You're crackin' the safe! Gospel music is where all the bass 'beasts' are thriving! There are some ridiculous killas on bass throughout the gospel industry. You're gonna find the most creative grooves and riffs in gospel music. I'm looking at how you two guys are mesmerized by Justin (and rightfully so because Justin is a baaaaad man!)🔥🔥🔥 Hold on to your hats bros. Because there are even more cats in gospel music that will knock your socks off! This was a great interview guys!
Absolutely! I saw him plays drums on gospelchops shed sessions and said he is a beast. Then I realized he was one of the bass players too and fell in love with his style. Between that and watching interviews of him I saw that he is really humble.
Thank you Scott and Ian for this great interview. Justin's ability to distill complex ideas into clear, engaging dialogue was truly commendable. Very inspiring !
Just watching and listening to this podcasts and it helps you in improving more to be a better bass player...❤ thank you scott, ian and justin for sharing your knowledge on playing bass...much love brother's
THANK you guys for this interview. I was really inspiring. And to Sir Justin Raines I say Thank you for all you've given toe and to the world God bless you Sir. 🤔And whatever happened to your first Saratoga. I have longed so much for so long to own one of your signature Saratoga as my own. And to Scott and Ian, I love u Guys. You guys have thaught me a lot. God bless you All
Justin came to my church in Georgia for a Saturday morning to sit with myself and a few other bass players for a masterclass session on breaking down songs and how bass playing can affect the whole band! He is awesome and always go back to those lessons I learned then to this day!
Scott, this was so great and informative. I watch a lot of your videos and this one with Justin was awesome for bass players like me. Looking to more videos😊 👍
As an amateur church bass player I love the fact that you are digging into the gospel bass world. Yes, sometimes it seems like a whole world apart. Thank you!
Just stumbled on this channel and love everyones humility and respect for each other. I started learning guitar on the bass, then learned chords for rhythm guitar and finally combined my rhythm guitar and bass skills to transition to lead guitar, but i'm always awed by the amount of talent i see out there. Respect to all.
Thank you for the interview. Mr Raines is a great musician and he is helping us growing musicians in ways he cannot fully comprehend. May God keep expanding your territory Mr Raines.
All the way from papua new guinea 🇵🇬 to you three gentlemen and Justin..thank you so much for this interview...I learnt alot....Thank you scot...thank Ian....Justin you are amazing!..keep shining brighter every tomorrow.....much love
Man... Justin Raines.. arguably my favorite Bass Player of all time. I love his technique, discipline, groove.. just name it.. And more so his in-the-pocket licks.. like the one at 36:37 that made both Scott and Ian say "Yeah" as if it was rehearsed.. I found myself also saying the "Yeah" in sync.. Long life to Justin Raines!
Definitely a master of his craft. Love this interview. The fluidity thing with bass players is different with Richard Bona because not only does he make it sound fluid but he makes it look fluid when he does it. It's hard to describe but Justin does it the same.
Thanks Scott and Ian. Couple of your well composed questions were same here. Justin, thanks for being kind to us and generous with your knowledge and experience around the bass. Thanks again Scott…so on point!
What a great interview ! What I love is that when you listen to the really GREATS like Justin, they are always so humble, kind and down to earth. Plus you can feel what a great teacher he is through the way he is able to "simplify" things that look very complex. Justin's playing is so fluid and groovy... I see the similarity with Richard's fluidity. Man, I discovered Richard Bona during a small festival in France in 2002 or something. The miserable guitar player that I was was at the front row, Man, he blew my mind. He had it all: the groove, the technic. Plus he sings like a God. But I think I prefer Justin's playing because I think his playing his less "busy" than Richard's. Richard is really over the top sometimes ! Ian and Scott, you guys are great interviewers. I've been a member of SBL for nearly a year now and I've learnt so much thanks to you, even if I'm not the most consistent student outhere. I've praticed bass more in nearly a year than in the previous 13 years I played with my metal band as a self taught bass player. Keep up the great work all you and God Bless you Justin ! You're a Gem !
This was eye opening in several ways. Practicing double slapping for a year before using it publicly was a HUGE lesson, in practice but moreso in attitude. Evening out the fingerstyle and thumbstyle was a huge lesson in concept. Awesome interview.
Justin is highly skilled. So humble. I wish he was my instructor. His playing techniques are top notch. Regarding distraction, i recall when Don Moen said less is more. I love Justin's position on this.
Scott I couldn’t have summed it up better than your closing statement to Justin! Justin, thank you so much for your time, energy and spirit injected into this interview and thank you Scott & Ian for your provocative and thought inspiring questions to Justin which in turn gives us the listeners those inspirational gems. Thank you for this channel. Scott’s Bass Lesson IS THE BEST! Bless you all. ❤🙏🏽
When I started looking for a way forward on bass, Justin's TH-cam videos and Scott's bass lessons played a huge part and still do. There is indeed no shortcut to being a solid bass player. I guess for persons like me a 'wannabe-bassist', it might be enough to enjoy the journey and be open to possibilities. Thank you for breaking it all down. JRaines is certainly exceptional and a master of the craft! Thanks again Scott, Ian and the team at SBL
So Good! Great questions by Ian about distraction and celebration and great answer by Justin. What I’ve learned is that it is also a culture thing. Different things can distract in different cultures. It’s having that balance of being you and play with freedom while still being able to adjust to the culture of the people.
Loved this interview! I had a similar expirience as Justin. As a young keyboardplayer around the year 2000 I went to North Sea Jazz Festival to see the Joe Zawinul Syndicate World Tour. I wanted to learn from this master keyboard player. And then there was Richard Bona and my complete attention went to that incredable bassplayer as I stood there with my mouth wide open. Keep up the good work!
What a great interview and what a player! I must admit that I wasn't familiar with Justin before I saw this but I have to say that I found this interview really inspiring and you can just see that he is a great teacher. Even just in the course of that video he shared some awesome techniques that I am definitely going to incorporate into my practice routine. Look forward to checking out more of his work.
Blessings to you all! This is what I needed to hear as a church bass player. We can learn as much as possible always. And there's no shortcut to scales! And The POCKET.
Ian, Scott and Sharon!!!! Thank You again for allowing me to share a little bit of me to your audience! I'm grateful for the connections made and I look forward to working with you all more in the future!!!
Beautiful interview👉
You’re the best Justin! Thanks so much for the hang, the wisdom and the kindness (combined with absolute ferocious playing 😅)
What a champion! You all are!
Thank you Justin for show your self out there I been fallowing you for almost 15 years and you are my example as bass player musician on gospel more than other gospel bass player. keep doing more videos 👊 and stay bless my Brother clean clear and precise ill take that as my lesson
Thanks for the great interview! Can you tell me which Album did you mention exactly? There is Greg Howe, Dennis Chambers and Victor Wooten but I can not find with Richard Bona.. Even on youtube there is no video of them...
When Justin Raines said that he spent a year on his double thumb technique before he went public, he served up a big dose of perspective on the difference between being able to play a few licks and really have a clean technique.
There is definitely a big difference between the two!
The way Scott and Ian are so gracious and respectful to Justin and all of the players they interview is so awesome to see. They show so much respect to these bassists!
🧡🧡🧡
Finally we get into the gospel realm! 😌 nothing but straight 🔥🔥
Justin's description of
"THE POCKET" is THE GREATEST I'VE EVER HEARD.

just like any other field
Thanks so much you two for a great interview.
Ian, I’m 67 years young and still striving on the bass, this was so inspiring.
Justin you are such an inspiration. God Bless and thank you for all of your creativeness.🙏
One of the best interviews. Couldn't just get off the screen
I haven’t touched my bass in over a year. So I’m trying to come back to and I needless to say, this has me fired up all over again!
Man, I wish I had had Justin as a teacher when I started playing. Aside from his excellent practical advice, he has such a gentle, encouraging vibe. 😎♥️
It's cool to see a Christian gospel bassist on here
Praise sweet baby jesus
Would it matter if he wasn’t Christian? Music has no religion.
Would not matter at all. Music is music right. Gospel Jazz Blues Rock Reggae Punk. Its like when people say Black music, music has no colour 😊 @fross1203
Agree 👍
As opposed to not Christian gospel music?

What a beautiful humble man. Just a great inspiration! I found myself smiling at so many of his drops of great tips and techniques. Like you said what a treat! God bless you Justin! I learned so much with just my ears today.
Love justins playing and from his replies to TH-cam comments he seems so humble and grounded
Justin Raines is one special musician and an awesome person, God bless him all the days of his life.

Love from Nigeria... Justin is one of my favorite bassist.
This was one of the best interviews I’ve ever watched! Great job!!
Not only is he one of the best of what he does, but he’s also one of the most humble.

This was wholesome to watch. Keys player here but I learnt a lot! Cant help but imagine what it would be like having Kaybass on here
When I meet people like this dude playing, they ask do play, I rush a NO, I’ve just started learning for 15 years.
Love this guy, he is absolutely amazing! Would love to get more gospel players on here, especially the beast Matt Ramsey!
All the way from papua new guinea 🇵🇬 to you three gentlemen and Justin..thank you so much for this interview...I learnt alot....Thank you scot...thank Ian....Justin you are amazing!..keep shining brighter every tomorrow.....much love

There is one thing to be a gospel legend but the main thing is being a saved legend. His blessing you bro. Great player..
One of my all time favorite bass players!
Definitely a master of his craft. Love this interview. The fluidity thing with bass players is different with Richard Bona because not only does he make it sound fluid but he makes it look fluid when he does it. It's hard to describe but Justin does it the same.
I'm really glad that Justin said that everything birthed from the major scale! it makes so much sense!
Thanks Scott and Ian. Couple of your well composed questions were same here. Justin, thanks for being kind to us and generous with your knowledge and experience around the bass. Thanks again Scott…so on point!
What a fun interview to watch and Justin Raines is so generous in his answers and lessons
It was an absolute pleasure to interview him!
What a valuable dialog and information filled interview - bravo Justin, Scott and Ian. Thank you!
I'm not a bass player but a guitar player and I enjoy watching all of the eps since they helped me open up into something more than just music!!!
20:56 makes a joke, accidentally writes a Primus bassline, what a legend
Great interview, great bass player. Really inspiring. Well done Scott & Ian 🎸

Loved this interview! I had a similar expirience as Justin. As a young keyboardplayer around the year 2000 I went to North Sea Jazz Festival to see the Joe Zawinul Syndicate World Tour. I wanted to learn from this master keyboard player. And then there was Richard Bona and my complete attention went to that incredable bassplayer as I stood there with my mouth wide open.
Keep up the good work!
Absolutely love Justin Raines now, your explanation of things has become an inspiration and good motivation on my bass journey
Such a great interview. The best one SBL has ever done🎉🎉🎉
Justin!! Proud of you brother!!
Bassist to Bassist Justin R Raines is a Beast on bass..GOD BLESS YOU
My favourite!!!!
Such a blessing, I am going to get a cup of coffee and sloooooooowly dissect this video!!!
Thank you everyone at SBL!

Justin is the one person who inspired my bass playing coz Israel Houghton is the one who has inspired the way I have understood music.
What a pleasure!!! A ton of inspiration! Thank you very very much for this gift!
🧡🧡🧡
Thanks for this interview. Didn't knew Justin, will for sure check out. Seems to be a really nice person.
We love you Justin!❤
Blessings to you all! This is what I needed to hear as a church bass player. We can learn as much as possible always. And there's no shortcut to scales!
