Ground Level Ear Training for Bass Players (Day One)

Just starting out with ear training? This is where it begins.
In this video, we strip everything down to the true ground level — no theory, no guesswork, just the first real step every bassist needs to hear clearly and confidently.

I also share a deeper truth most teachers don’t talk about:
Many bass players struggle with ear training not because they lack talent or discipline — but because they’ve never learned to recognize success when it happens.

This creates a cycle of self-doubt, second-guessing, and frustration — even when you're actually doing it right.

If you’ve felt stuck, or like ear training just doesn’t “click,” this video will help you reset the foundation — and finally make progress that feels real.

Whether you play 4-string, 5-string, short-scale, or upright bass — this is about building the internal skills every great bassist depends on: listening, awareness, and musical instinct.
