Thanks for posting these. They are among the few professional standard bass lessons I've seen on You Tube. What I like is that each clip takes a few minutes, unlike the forty seconds to a minute that the majority seem to be. It's fairly comprehensive too. I did not get a chance to check it all out, so forgive me if this is covered already. A suggestion would be to have a few lessons on chords (their make up, inversions etc). Keep up the good work

Yes chord theory lessons are coming as well as how to apply chord theory to the bass. Thanks for taking the time to check out the videos I really appreciate it.

The muting lesson was a great help. Using the right hand mute seems to be what I've been looking for. I like the double bass "thump" sound this gives.

Thanks.
