Already done that lol. there no existant now, still scratching.

Oh see ive only had the bass for 4 days like, so I haven't bothered waxing it. So this wax fills in the scrathes? Anyone used it? On the tub they say use it once a week :S

Got a new Warwick corvette passive in swamp ash and it sounds so sick. But when it comes to playing slap, I pretty much attack the bass, especially with pops. Theres the problem, whenever I pop on this new vette it ends up scratching the life out of the wood underneath the string, so after...

I think its a unanimous flat wound victory!! Rotosounds 66 swings all the way

Update: Word on the street is that Xavier himself from Justice played it!!!!!!!!! Hes a sick bassist!

Thats it there. But yeah awesome innit? Thats even pretty awesome tht they done it with sequencers ... like they would have to know there theory to even construct such a solo on a computer. Anyone able to tab it?

Whoah! Who is that player?! He/She is sssiiiccckkk!!!!!!! The bass solo at the end is insane, and I've been trying to work it out, but I'm finding it pretty difficult. Could someone else have a go? heres a link to the song

How do you get good at this sort of percussive stuff?

Alright guys, I'm in a band from Belfast and we recorded two songs yesterday and I just wanted to know if we could get some feedback on them? And my bass playing in them lol, I kept it pretty simple though Link Removed

@ Deacon blues.. YTeah with three fingers I can get to about 140 doing 16th notes, I've been practicing that lol. But I want to just get playing with two fingers faster. @Steve Oh yeah I see what you mean, ill be giving that a go THanks :)

Any serious replies?

Sorry dude typo lol. I don't even think there is a 25.0 .. Duno what I was thinking. Hmm, my bass is a piece of ****! I've set it up though so that the fret buzz is as minimal as possible. What happens if you do push it too far?

What is the best way for building up the finger muscles in pizzicato? Like currently I can go at about 100 playing 16th notes, but i need to get faster.

Yes! Learn your modes good sir! Once you realize that every major has a relitive minor, then you open it all up and you start throwing in mixolydian fills or whatever. Also learn all the different shapes of the blues scale.

As Far as I know its hard to get hold of Markbass in Europe. Well in the UK anyway. I've never seen them in a shop.
