    Where Do I Go From Here?

    Learning songs is great advice, but also learn the melody and use what you already know about theory to play the melody all over the bass. Practice keeping time, be disciplined, play slowly, concentrate on your tone. Try to expand your listening, find some music way outside your comfort...

    Jobs for touring musicians?

    Learn to wash windows. If you can hustle work you'll make decent money. I survived the same touring schedule this way.

    Epiphone 3G or Fender Lyte

    I just picked up a Lyte about a month ago. I have been playing for many years and this is my favorite neck ever. The neck is very slim much like the ibanez that you will be transitioning from. The pick ups in the P-Lyte can help you get a wide range of tones, certainly covering anything you...

    You could bounce your thumb "through" the string.

    Help me get a reggae tone out of my Stingray- please?!

    Turn the bass all the way up, the treble all the way down, and then play over the end of the fret board. I have found it also helps to turn your amp way up and play really soft with your right hand.

    gig with a combo amp?

    I use an Ampeg BA 115 for every thing. It's built like a tank and can hold up to any venue I've played. It lacks some deffinition in the mids, but i have never had any complaints.
