    Using a B string “correctly”

    As a fellow church bassist who happens to play in a Christian Rock band as well I can give you some advice from my own experience and you can take it as you would like.

    Has anyone made the leap from 4 to 6 and not looked back?

    Basses you like that everyone else said sucks.

    My GSR-100EX Made by Ibanez. I don't think I possibly could have fallen in love with bass had I not purchased that bass as a grad gift for myself in '08. Its the reason I ever learned to play. It's no longer my favorite but it'll always be my first and will likely never be traded or sold.
