Instructional Video Requests?

Sign in to disble this ad
So I've made a few instructional videos on Youtube (www.youtube.com/peanutbuddha) and I'm really not too sure what to make next. I did Four Finger Technique and Sweep Arepeggios and am at a loss as to what people would like to see.

I was thinking some Tapping lessons, maybe Fur Elise? I can pretty much put up any lessons whether they be on harmony, basic techniques, advanced techniques or specific songs.

I just see so many lessons that have been done to death (for example, I doubt I can top Wooten's and Riendau's double thumb instructionals) so I'm shooting for originality and usefulness.

Hit me with ideas!

Do a rhythm video. Show each note (whole, half, quarter, eigth, yada yada) at like 100 BPM, then show the rests, then mix it together for a beat.


I dunno, just throwin ideas out there =)

Good ideas! That rhythm thing would be tough haha. I'll probably have one or two up later this evening, as well as a run through of this Carvin I'm trying to trade off, it's sound, fit, finish, flaws etc. Maybe a solo tune also. Pz.

Those are really fun.

Suggestion, not on techniques of playing, but on vid production. Get better lighting on the bass and fingers. May want to introduce self and explain a few techniques too.

I've been trying but that room is dark! I'll probably drag another lamp in there this afternoon. Oh, I'll introduce myself too. =)
