I'm Hamlet7768, but you can call me Hamlet. I'm a completely inexperienced bass player who came on here to get some advice on starting out in learning bass. My experience is limited to "air-bass-guitaring" and listening to music. I'm really sorry if I seem annoying because I have no experience, I just thought if I came on here, I could get some tips.

EDIT: An idea of my inexperience: I had to look up what string was missing for the anti-spam verification.

Hello Hamlet,

I am new to bass playing as well. Nice to meet you. I remember those notes by naming them. Good Dogs Always Eat... That is how I remember. Not saying that bad dogs dont eat, but just a way I remember.

I am going to remember that for the rest of my life. Nice one.

I was excited finding this forum because I have a few friends on the bass scene, and seeing the forum posts from pro's, I'm sure I'm going to impress them with my new knowledge.

I've only attempted to play a bass a few times where my guitar skills helped a bit - I have more experience with other instruments and equipment, but will answer any posts I'm savvy to.
