Part 3: You’re Not Just a Bass Player—You’re a Musician

Scott's Bass Lessons
Great bassists don’t just play their parts—they listen like producers. In this final episode, Scott and Ian talk about how to zoom out, hear the full band, and start making musical decisions that go beyond technique.
You’ll learn:
- How to stop obsessing over the bass line—and hear everything else
- Why learning other instruments’ parts makes you a better bassist
- How to shift from “What should I play?” to “What does this song need?”
This is where everything comes together—and where real musicianship begins.
