I’m really starting to feel frustrated with my playing. For a few years I learned several techniques, lines, songs and grooves. I devoted no less than 3 hours daily to my bass playing but the real thing is that I can’t play a solo. I want to focus on fusion, jazz rock and latin styles, but...

Yes, I know you’re right, I should not do that but I needed something to look forward on. I watched the preview on the site and I finally did follow your recommendation: I bought the online lessons and so far I’m getting into the music. This combined with the listening will help me a lot for...

Well, here’s the thing: I committed with a friend’s band to play their gig three weeks from now. The thing is that I can’t really play well but I’m excited for have this opportunity of playing live for first time. I don’t have that much time and want to get on that show in a good shape; it’s my...

"Dying Song" John Frusciante "Waiting For My Real Life To Begin" Collin Hay "In My Life" Beatles and for a great finale "Same old Blues" Freddie King

LOTS of blues tunes, can't name one. Oh, wait: Before you accuse me :D In pop music, I think that it has 4 chords, but love the simplicity, the beat and the great guitar part of The Police's "Message in a Bottle"

Great news, John is an amazing and incredibly underrated bass player. His bass lines were amazing, I love his work on A Day at the Races, specially the tunes "Millionaire Waltz", "Long Away" and "You and I" (his very own composition). I think that he plays some double bass on "Bring Back...

The thumbpick it's an excellent advice, unless you play some realy fast attacked notes, like in Hardcore-Punk or metal

I had the blisters problem when I first started to play and I was wondering the same thing. Now I'm trying to build my callouses but step by step, I'm no intending to hurry up on hurting my hand :D

I'm just starting to play and found what this was all about in the sticky thread. I'm sure that I will be learning this one in a future, not now. I think that if I skip some sutff that I'm practicing now I'll be doing the wrong thing. But if you feel that you can go back and practice things...

Wow, awesome video and advice. Maybe I'll start with three fingers in a near future

Why give up on pick? There are many awesome players that play with a pick and they sound great. It's just another sound and it's not for all styles, but I'm trying to learn it no matter what

His bass lines are simple, and simplicity is often confused with basic. Simplicity is one of the hardest things to achieve in the music field , and as my teacher said to me once: "it is 1000 times easier play fast than playing right". So, I think that RW plays RIGHT

Hey Juan, I've got the extreme respect for TMV, think that you're the band that gonna save rock and roll. I loved Ochtaedron, your fretless sound is awesome
