5 string basses with thin nut width will have pretty tight string spacing and makes playing with fingers pretty tricky (unless you use a pick then it works out great). Unless you need that G string I would just do what the others have suggested and get a 5 string string set then drop the G...

You have live unedited videos on your youtube channel that have a few songs in full and how you play them live unedited.

How are modes unless when the two widely used scale in popular music to build melody, harmony and chords are the major (ionian) and minor (aeolian) scales. Both the modes and scales or what some people call keys have the same exact notes and chords in the same order.

The root chord of the harmonized Locrian mode is a Diminished chord, there for we can say it has a diminished feel other then major or minor scales. This will affect the way we construct Locrian modal vamps we'll want to emphasize the Diminished character of the Locrian mode, and the only way to...

My theory got thrown the hardest mode to write music for and one that almost everyone avoids (most likely was the reason that was thrown at me anyway, as it's the easiest mode to confuse people with), the diminished locrian mode. As with modes we have 3 major and 3 minor then the dreaded locrian...

The Locrian mode is the only modern diatonic mode in which the tonic triad is a Diminished, which is considered dissonant. This is because the interval between the root and fifth of the chord is a diminished fifth. Locrian is a mode that has a diminished sound and a chord progression with a...

Modes are a nice way to convert a chord progression to another flavor for a added section to a song. You can take the verse chord progression and use the same intervals from each chord start from another note in the major scale and have something that sounds way different but still in the same...

On paper it is the same scale starting on different notes but what humans hear is different flavors that modes offer. A aeolian and C ionian have all the same chords and notes they just start at a different location and thus sound way different to the human ear. Whenever you change the tonic on...

If you want to play F lydian we would take the same approach as playing the key of C in minor (a aeolian). We start the progression of chords from the start of the F note within the key of C. So instead of playing C F G (the I - IV - V chords) and start it on the F note so we get the chords F...

Well theory is just that, it's not proven to be right. You can learn theory out the wazzo but then someone throws you something way outside the box that sounds great to add tension or some emotion but doesn't fit on paper.

It's pretty easy to call someone out with zero facts to back up your statements lol. I shall ignore you to not contribute to your ego stoke lol.

If I based my movie off a book that means I used the book as a reference point when creating the story (because we all know no movie based off a book is 100% the same haha). Sorry of the term or choice of words confused others. The major scale is the same as the idea of ionian mode and that is...

Yes that's because we all agreed that we liked ionian and aeolian the best and gave them both the key lead role of major and minor.

Yes that was you responding to a post that said "My point of view is that EVERY scale relates to the major scale, meaning the sequence of intervals that is: W W H W W W H. So using The Melodic Minor as an example, once you establish the relationship of the Melodic Minor to the Major scale...

So now your going against what you said before?
