There is also Bass Guitar.
BG is more for nu-metal kids.
BP is for people who want to learn about music.
Both are good reads, but both are different. |

And I don't think "nu-metal" is a very good word choice, but it is definitely for the younger, "I WANNA F*CKING SHRED" crowd i'd say.

Bass Guitar must be trying to branch out because they just hired Ed Friedland away from Bass Player.

Another great magazine is Bassics Magazine. Comes with a great CD and is more of serious players magazine.
I also like Bass Player.

I read it because it has a lot of coverage for the heavier stuff I like. Bass Player, while having more variety, doesn't have much in the metal department, but has better reveiws and tech tips.....some times, it just seems like too much information. |

That said, there is a UK publication called "Bass Guitar" that is totally different from the US one. The UK one is an excellent magazine. BP is probably the best bass magazine, but IMO, JazzImprov definitely wins out in my opinion as best music magazine.
