In this bass lesson. I show you a Gospel inspired funky bass line and four epic Gospel licks that you need to know to spice up your bass lines.

There are two scales that you can use to create great sounding bass licks that have the Gospel sound:
1. The Minor Blues Scale
2. The Minor Pentatonic Scale

In this lesson I not only teach you these four epic Gospel licks but I also show you the concepts behind improvising and creating your own great sounding licks and riffs that you can use in many styles of music.

This bass video tutorial is suitable for absolute beginner bass players through to intermediate bassists.

• Click for my 'Bass Beginner Series'. The series cover lots of topics for beginners, with tips on bass techniques, scales, arpeggios, pentatonic scales, and learning to read music.

  • Hi Greg for the past 11 years I have played in a gospel band in church every week and in other venues. All I can say is great lesson and I think you have got it spot on . Thanks
  • Mate! Just found your channel. I will need to binge watch your videos.
  • @Tony410117
    Thanks a lot Greg. I really like your tuition style.
  • @0L44R5
    Great lesson! Thank you!
  • Greg, all I had to do was listen to maybe 10 seconds of this and know, "I want to play like that!" Bravo.
  • Your amazing you have thought of everything as a teatcher Most people teaching talk way to fast and are not clear You have the patience of a Saint Your whole aura is felt and heard Your are an amazing guy Sharing your talent with others I have only just found you I am 63 and just started bass 5 years ago with absolutely no knowledge of music or bass so everything helps even better when it so clear You are an inspiration Wow 💜🎸🎶💜
  • @JohndeGroot
    Greg this is such a nice video where you explain it bar by bar. it is a great way to break the song down and later put it all together. I am exited about it. Thanks Greg now i will practice.
  • @t.s.racing
    Thank you so very much Greg, you truly understand the concept of going slow for us beginners. 👏👏👏
  • Well Done Brother G - Excellent Break Down With Each Lick - Will Take Me Awhile To Work Up To Speed But Dig The Concept Be Well, Cheers
  • @MsMusicman56
    Some good ideals to add to my arsenal ... thank you.
  • @14threshold
    Fantastic timing. I am just starting a little gospel band from home with some of my community gospel choir attending
  • Great lesson and licks. I'm taking your reading music boot camp so this will help with my reading as well. I'm picking up the bass again after playing rhythm guitar and blues harp with one band and now bass with the new band.
  • Very good lesson, Greg. I am an intermediate bassist but had developed in interest in gospel but everything that I have seen is for advanced
  • @mrob4444
    Wow what a great a bass line and licks, thank you. When I saw gospel thought I wouldn’t be interested in that. How wrong I was! Found that using a pull-off after the hammer-on in lick 4 also sounds great.
