A newbie here and on the bass

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi guys, just got a bass today so I'm a total beginner, did used to play 6 string so I have a bit of a head-start.
I'll mostly be learning off a play-along program called tuxguitar which uses the same files as guitar pro to work and I hope to learn at least 1 basic bass-line tonight and try to get some instructional books sometime next week.
I'm mostly into rock and metal but I like a bit of everything.
I hope to get to know you guys well as you seem like a nice helpful bunch just from what I've seen here so far, I'm open to any advice you guys can give and if there's any easy but still rockin' songs you guys could suggest I start with and where I can download the tabs that would be great.
So I'm off to start pissing off my neighbours (never liked 'em anyway!) Happy playing to you all, back soon
