I picked up a bass over 20 years ago and made the mistake of buying a left-handed because I am left-handed. Needless to say I did not fare well and quit in less than a year. Fast-forward to 2 months ago and I decided to pick it up again. I didn’t even think about it and started “playing” (if that is what you can call it ) right-handed. Just a natural thing. Anyhow, saving this video for later down the road. I really enjoy your lessons Josh!
Hey Josh, been humbly in the process of learning bass. THIS is precisely why I want to learn bass, to learn this exact style. It makes the bass sound like a totally different instrument
I have learned that everything (for me) is to learn everything in chunks. I still struggle with "seeing" the road map as I play. It does get easier as I practice, though. It's fun. Thanks, Josh!
Great video timing! I am able to tap lines on a single string but I wanted to learn doing it on the whole fretboard, this exercise looks like a good workout to begin with
wow wow... I've been watching you for a while... then I found a new TH-camr with cool videos. Been watching him for a while and then realized I watched videos from 2012. I decided to check what he is doing now... and it was you =0
totally unrelated, how can you make your machine heads so clearly visible with the green screen?! o_O (I am asking because I never managed to get clear machine heads with my green screen :D)
Hey Josh, is this a good exercise to get started on tapping? My left pinky feels very very weak but I’m guessing it’ll get stronger the more I do this.
Josh! That's excellent. Fun to try, even though I am only just now getting started with Module 12 (Lesson 4). Also enjoyed following your talk about your personal practice regimen. Couple of questions: can you tell me how to access the pdf for Bass Tapping? Also, is the increased SIZE of a Cirrus difficult to adapt to? Thanks! Stewart
Awesome lesson, Josh! I just wanted to ask when you tap the note, do you hold onto it whilst tapping the next one or do we ideally let go and just rest the finger on the string?
when tapping the notes higher up on the fret board i'm not getting a clean tone even if i tap them individually with one finger. Do i need to adjust my truss rod or something?
I found that just like fretting normally, hit the note towards the back of the fret right before the fret bar. I found this much more difficult than usual with my right hand but practice makes...a little better :p
Hello Sir, you are my best friend I think yes? Yes, cool. Very good Bass playing here Sir, many respects to you. I liking bass very much, it make me very cool I think, and the lady they like me if I doing this. Very good!! Good day to you my good friend.
A fellow lefty who plays right-handed, nice.
If he' left-handed and can play so good at right-handed bass, then he is very pro
hi is it weird for you playing right handed? My nephew is left handed but I am now thinking a right handed bass could suit him
it's completely natural to me
Idk why i play double bass also as a lefty
Hi me too
Wow thank you for this I've really missed this channel your exercises are the best
Thank you!
THIS IS THE BEST JOSH FROM BASS BUZZ IS THE BEST TEACHER

Something almost identical was one of my go-to bass demo licks about 30 years ago, strangely enough.
Must be genetic!
i guess being great bass players runs in the family :)

Man, I'm learning so much from your channel. Thank you
You're welcome!

Thank you
Yay! I just discovered your channel and now I have a new video :D
Nice one Josh. I will be using this for sure. Got to get back into tapping.
thx bro
Great lesson Josh.
Thanks Judi!
Very good
Josh at the 9:10 mark: The left hand part in this couldn't really be much dumber and easier.
Me: Hold my beer
:P
Man this sounds incredible! Any effect or dry bass?
Thanks! Just dry bass, maybe a touch of reverb (can't remember).
This is incredible
wow wow... I've been watching you for a while... then I found a new TH-camr with cool videos. Been watching him for a while and then realized I watched videos from 2012. I decided to check what he is doing now... and it was you =0
one month with this takes out all the nervousness of tapping accurecy
I'm a beginner and I love using this work to build pinky strength
Love your ‘Velvet Underground’/ Warhol tattoo ✌️
totally unrelated, how can you make your machine heads so clearly visible with the green screen?! o_O (I am asking because I never managed to get clear machine heads with my green screen :D)
Hey Hugo, no green screen, just a black backdrop. I have machine head problems when I do green screen stuff too!
@@joshfossgreen oh ok, thanks, I don't feel alone anymore XD (makes sense using a black backdrop, actually °_° :D)
Hey Josh, is this a good exercise to get started on tapping? My left pinky feels very very weak but I’m guessing it’ll get stronger the more I do this.
Are you doing any muting? Also I play with very low action. Will that effect the tapping? I notice a lot of clanking on my fretboard when tapping.
Very good!
Do you need new strings for tapping or something cause mine are more than six months old and sounding terrible???

Heyyy, you're the BassBuzz guy!!
iam a beginner and i found that easy
Cool!!!
This is a great exercise but I find that it makes my left hand wrist hurt, anything I can do to help that?
when tapping the notes higher up on the fret board i'm not getting a clean tone even if i tap them individually with one finger. Do i need to adjust my truss rod or something?

Yo, Josh! That's a beautiful Peavy you have. Could you by any chance tell me the name of the model? Thx
00:02 lets see
Ive been practicing for a couple of hours and i just need the last measure. I think it's easier to count it as 6/8 6/8 + 4/8, would you agree?
Do you need an amp to tapp because my amp broke
Hey Josh, I just have to ask and it's not a bass question! Is there a story about the banana? Did you lose a bet LOL?
Hello! Tell me your guitar model please?
Lol, you are staring to upload a lot more on here, has something happened with BassBuzz?
Nope, doing both!
@@joshfossgreen oh cool just asking lol
first comment!!! this is awesome!
Thanks Chuck!
i cant seem to be able to put my middle finger down. its quite the pickle.
you look like the bass buzz guy
Haha funny bassbuzzer go tappy tappy tap tap
You’re bassbuzz
True!
El tipo tiene una banana tatuada en el brazo??
A fellow lefty that plays righty. Nice no see
Tx. Is it banana 🍌 tattoo on right hand?
