what? I didn't even say anything.

lol im too cheap to pay 20 bucks to get a membership. I think ill try the marketplace in facebook first. What do people here think of that?

Hi, i was looking to sell my Ibanez SR 500. I bought it about 2 years ago and its still in good condition. It looks brand new. It is missing one of the knobs. I bought it for around 500 or 550. I also bought a hardshell case with it. Where can i sell the bass guitar and the case to get as much...

I understand that many riffs and solos were made from them, but each time i try to make up a riff or a solo, it never sounds right. It just sounds like something really, really boring.

I've been looking through many lessons and they go over basic scales such as ionian,dorian, lydian etc... When I try to improvise in these scales, they never sound good in the chord progressions I play along with. Why is it that all these scales sound like generic crap when you try to make up...

I usually NEVER memorize or play along with the whole song... Sadly, I only learn a few riffs here and there. I've been lately getting into Slayer. At first I thought the bassist do anything special on bass so it would be easy for me to play all the slayer bass lines... boy I was wrong. I...

The book doesn't seem user-friendly. I remember buying it 2 years ago and looking through it saying "Ah, this seems interesting." I remember I bought it and read some of the stuff and tossed it aside. I picked it up a year later and tried to learn bass "seriously" with that book and it was hard...

Ok well when you guys insult Mark Hoppus of Blink 182, the reason is because he is playing simple basslines and then you call out people who say that Hoppus is just doing what is best for the music. It's very funny how it's different when it comes to slayer.

I personally think that he is just one of those people who picked up bass just so he could be in a band and sing. He just plays root notes (as in he only plays the bare minimum to fit the song and thus doesn't add anything except another layer to the tracks) and his lyrics are very similar to...

I'm going to wait until I'm in college to start a band, but for right now I've just been jamming with some friends I know. I'm going to be a senior very soon and I know a high school band won't last too long. Not a lot of people are serious about forming bands around here. Also how would I...

Amen Amen

I think its pretty generic.

1. Already have a Ibanez SR500 with new DR strings. It is probably the most comfortable bass I've ever played and that's why I spent my summer savings on it. 2. This isn't a bad idea, I'm just don't know anything about drum machines and I'm not willing to spend alot of money. 3. Yeah I've...

would u guys recommend playing along with guitarpro? What are some good improv scales that I could jam to?

I guess I know what your saying lanceropolis. I mean I just don't really know how to organize a good solid metronome exercise by myself. I hear people saying to use a metronome all the time and I just don't know how to use it. What bpm should I put it on and what should I play? Those are the...
