Hey Daric excellent lesson. Like I told you earlier in the one lesson on learning the notes on the fret board I used my Snark Tuner and wrote down all the notes on the E, A, D and G string, then I tried the way you did it I played the F on the E then on the D it’s challenging but easy sorry for rambling, anyway I did not know a sharp and flat could occupy the same string, that’s interesting. Does all Bass players such as yourself play notes beyond the 12th fret even though they start over?
I’m not sure about other bassists I definitely do!
Still working on it Daric, I’m determine though. Promised my step son I would be playing Heavenly Choir by the Canton Spirituals within a month. thanks for the lessons.
That’s a great goal! I’m here if you need me or have any questions👍🏾
Thanks Bruh.

Hey, what exactly are you struggling with??? Want to be able to break it down for you
Learning the chords and doing I just got my bass today all I know is eadg try to see if you have a video where I can follow to learn all the frets
That’s what this video is mapping out along with a few others. In this video I show how to learn the names of the notes on each fret
