    Electric Bass in Bluegrass

    I grew up in Tennessee surrounded by Bluegrass, it's how I learned to play. I recommend using flat wounds and something to somewhat mute the strings. Think early Fender Jazz days. They use to put foam under the strings at the bridge to mimic the sound.

    Is a drum machine really necessary to learn bass?

    I've never used a drum machine. The only reason you would even need a metronome is if you have timing issues.

    At the moment I just have a couple acoustic songs out. I just threw down a bass line to a sorta hip hop track. The moment I get some studio tume and track the vocals I'll post it here. I'm on reverbnation.

    Getting to know Shane Foster

    I am a solo artist with bass at heart. I picked up the bass in the fall of 2000 as an early birthday present. It was the first of a lifelong addiction. I've learned to play many stringed instruments and a few percussions since, but bass is where I thrive.
