Weekly Bass Tips w/ Adam Neely
 

Hey all, it's been a while since I've posted lessons regularly, but I'm trying to get back into it. The series, "the Weekly Bass Tip" is meant to just give ideas for practice and performance, rather than to go into exhaustive detail into any one particular thing. Hopefully they'll inspire you a little bit!

Enjoy!

Week Four - Reading stuffs

How high action are you talking about on week one?

Pics?

I have heard people say higher action gives better tone, I think maybe they mean no fret buzz when digging in?

It varies bass to bass, and really the only way you can truly tell the difference is in a playing situation with other people, in my humble opinion. It could be no fret buzz when digging in, or it could be higher or lower than that threshold. The whole idea, however, is that you're getting it to a point where you don't feel like you are particularly hindered by your bass by how you are digging in.

Week 5!
