Thank you, it just seems like I try my best to play fast and then I lose focus in the process. I guess I'll see how it goes today, wish me luck xD

I am trying to play a song that is very fast and challenging for my music controlled assessment, only trouble is when I try to play, I find it very difficult to keep up with the time. It's not that I can't pick fast, it's the fact my fingers seem to get 'stuck' on the strings. It really affects...

That's true, I just personally love the satisfaction I get from learning something myself :)

Thanks guys :) & probably not, probably the most sensible xD I think im too far in to start having lessons now, I've been playing guitar for around 5 years now :)

It just seems too much for me, I don't have a high budget because of my age

Thank you for the input! I was wondering, how do you go about replicating the parts in lateralus and schism (the parts that use the octave up setting) without the whammy? :)

I dont mean the exact tone, I just enjoy covering tool songs, and there are some parts that are impossible to do without the whammy. Such as schism, lateralus, the pot. I've played guitar for 3 years and switched over to bass about a year ago

And by the way, when I said the new and old whammy pedals are out of my price range I was referring to the bass versions of said pedals :)

Hi, I posted vaguely about this before. I'm 15 years old, my birthday is next month and I'm looking for a new pedal to use with my bass. I really love tool, and I want to achieve the sounds Justin does with his bass. I want a whammy pedal but I feel the new (and old) whammy pedals are out of my...

Ditto

Im just going to wait this one out and see what other people make of it before committing to it. I would get the guitar version of it, but I just don't think it would be the same, I want one that is specifically designed for bass. I will have a look at the X 100.

Probably, sarcasm doesn't translate well by text. Sorry, didn't mean to sound arrogant

That is amazing, will definitely have to try this

Why would I shed out even more money for a predecessor, when I'm already on a tight budget?

Thank you :)
