Starting a Band part 2: the Bass  

Interesting lesson. As someone who has only ever taken lessons or practiced alone, seeing how even beginners can learn by playing off of each other was really interesting. Matt also clearly is a good bass player and offers some good insight into bass lines, and transitions that can lead a guitar player through a song. By the end, I wouldn't be buying their recording of margaritaville, but I could tell that's what they were playing and more importantly, it made me want to go try it myself.

I thought the lesson could be improved in two main ways. First, it was a little bit hard to understand exactly how Matt was playing the bass line, especially since the camera was only on his left hand for a while. a different or combined camera angle may have helped or a simple diagram showing which fingers were on which strings and frets. Second, the sound quality and syncing seemed to be fairly off, enough to be noticeable and a distraction to the content. Not sure what the cause was.

Overall though, I love the concept of a beginning guitar and bass jam lessons, and while I think this could be improved, this version certainly has benefit until a new one arrives! Good job Matt and Andy!
