I can't seem to find them anywhere. Does anyone have some bass tabs from the theme song in the show "the office"? Here is a video if you don't know what i'm talking about(so help you): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itO7cOWsYM4&feature=related

Any feedback on slap and pop on the bass? I did a little bit, but I'm not that good. I found tapping extremely awkward.

Well I love the sound, and persoanlly I think its a beutiful bass. I am just concerned about long term quality. If these basses are so good sounding and cheap as they are, why isn't traben competing along the lines of Ibanez(beside cosmetics) there must be something I'm missing here. I just...

I am thinking about getting a Traben 5 string bass. Model i'm not so sure of but I have tested it twice now, but i'm still on sure. What are your experiences with traben basses, or what have you heard? Invalid Link Removed

I mostly play rock, and metal. I also love to play funk and slap and pop along with a lot of tapping. I was wondering if the traben 5 string would be able to accommodate my needs? Note that I learned how to slap and pop on a four string ibanez p bass so I could adjust. I love the looks of it...

thats good because my ibanez right now has super close strings I like how the musicman looks too. The only thing is its really expensive.

Just to avoid confusion with the other 5 string thread. I am looking for a good five string bass that works with slap and pop, tapping and funk but CAN work with metal and rock aswell. I know thats asking for a lot, but you guys seem really well informed(im new here so yeah.) so lets see what we...
