I Don’t Particularly Like Modes A Lot: Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian, Locrian Little mnemonic that helped me remember the order :)
Hi Dan, I wanted to say thank you very much for this video pertaining to the modes. I’ve watched numerous videos on this topic, and by far your tutorial is the best, at explaining and demonstrating the modes.
Thank you Dan !! I’ve struggled with the modes for a while. I’ve been working on em and know the formulas, but have had a hard time inserting them to my play. This just helped tremendously! 😊
Wonderful lesson Dan .. That Lydian Mixolydian pattern i also see F major Pentatonic in there 3 for 1 hehe. Amazing , being new to the bass i can see patterns inside patterns now. Thank you for that insight and being a wonderful teacher.

I think JUICEBOX “ THE STROKES bassline is an example of Locrian mode.. and i think the Simpsons theme song is an example of Lydian?
Hi Dan. A big thank you for your bass lessons. I also have an ‘82 Ibanez Roadstar. Was the paint stripped off yours to get to the wood grain. Looks good.
The Greek modes were supposedly named after regions of Greece. Where I guess people liked the particular sound of their modes. I like to say that the Ionian people and the Aeolians used to squabble about things a lot. The Ionians were always so happy and the Aeolians were blue and bummed out until they got together and realized they were actually relatives. See how corny I can be? :)
Thanks. The way I did it was to listen to bass lines and apply what I heard to modes. Tip: Joe Satriani is amazing for this! Listen to Crystal Planet. th-cam.com/video/2iCNS3hEcQo/w-d-xo.html Those songs teach you the context from which you can take the ideas you like.
Depends what context. In jazz, soloists have a lot of choice. In pop, rock, funk etc. people need to be playing the same scales otherwise it’ll sound too chaotic! So generally they stick to the same mode.
Question so the number shown on the frets are only indication of where u are on the neck to do the mode or scale? Also thanks for showing the picture with the scales and the arrow now I got a screen shot of the idea of what to practice more often 👍

Very cool! I bought this one like this. I think it must have been stripped, yes, although I know next to nothing about the history of these basses.
Thank u so much!
You're welcome!

I can see it, Tod. 🤣🤣🙏🙏👍
This is helpful. After learning the modes. How do you actually know when to use them? When it works?

6:17 could be in a Tool song. 😂💜
I’ve been listening to a lot of Tool recently so not surprising!
@@OnlineBassCourses It's a good thing. 😁
Does the whole band need to be playing in the same mode? Or can you play whichever mode you want over the chords?

You got it! Sorry for the late reply - thought I already had!
GRAZIE
Great video, Dan. Modes are my next goal to getting my fingers and bass lines. Thanks for this resource.
Can i use the same mode pattern on every key?
Absolutely, just shift the pattern to a different root and you’re good to go. 👍
Dude, there are zillions of videos related to scales that were made years and years ago
That’s great to know dude, thanks.
