    Mingus, Mingus, Mingus

    Hey I'm wondering if any of you knows where I can get the full band score for Moanin' by Mingus. Even a lead sheet with melody would be fine or if anyone has it transcribed, no tab pls. Thanks.

    Unruly fretful fingers

    ^^^ heh I've got the same problem sometimes too. I'll get lazy then, floomp. I've been playing for about three years now, two 'self taught' which doesn't really count. And I can spin a pen with my right, but not with my left, so I'll try that. Thank yalls.

    Unruly fretful fingers

    Well when you're playing do you find that sometimes one of your fingers you're not using, like ring or middle, will sometimes pop/hide under the fretboard or will stick out. I'm double jointed in my fingers and sometimes they lock...not coo'. It does affect speed and my teach is all like...

    No Sound!!!

    But why is the other bass working? But during my lesson today, the bass worked okay, but I noticed it had a considerably lower output than the other basses that were plugged in. I will get it checked at the store, I guess, but I got a lot of things to do...school... :scowl:

    No Sound!!!

    not an active bass, shoud I remover the covering on the pickups? Wiring? I also plugged it through a guitar amp a few times, could that have anything to do with it? I've tried to remove the cover in the back, I tore a screw :rollno: I can't get the back open :(

    No Sound!!!

    The amp works fine, so do the cables...I've tried another bass on there and it's in worse shape than mine, at least it was...mine apparently doesn't work now! I've narrowed it to stringas or pickups, there's sound, but on a 60w amp I have to turn it 3/4ths of the way to get some semblence of a...

    Quickie Question

    Can strings become so dead, that they can't produce much sound? I don't mean if they're horribly filthy, mine are pretty clean, but I didn't change them for over a year... ...do you think it's time for a string change? :p :rolleyes:

    No Sound!!!

    Alright, so I plug in my bass, and when I try to play, hardly any sound comes out! I don't know whether if it's a pickup or string problem... :bawl: I have to play later today...do you think somethings wrong with my pickups or are my strings so dead, they can't even produce hardly any sound...

    Jaco

    Lucky bastards (emor, jerry, and Mojo- Man) :crying: ... :bawl: I just heard about him a little over a year ago, I was missing out. But then again, I've been playing bass for only a little over two years... :hmm: I always wonder if he didn't do all those things that screwed up his life...

    Squire: Affinity or Standard?

    :help: I need another bass for jazz combo, and I don't think my Rogue 5 string is going to cut it. I have a very tight budget and I was looking at getting a Squire Standard Jazz bass, but then I saw the Affinity at a lower price and I'm all like, as far as I'm concerned they are almost the...
