    SOLD ESP/LTD TA604FRX. Tom Araya Signature Edition

    This is the next bass I want to get, I been playing them in music stores and I'm ready to pick one up. I love the sound, I love the feel, and the way they look.

    Thinking about getting...

    The Dean Metalman V Bass. I've seen a couple of them around, and they're all over Reverb and Ebay but I've never played one, I'm mainly a Classic Vibe, Vin Mod guy....but I thought I'd try something that looks a little different. Does anybody have any experience with this axe, I've literally...

    Morley Man FX for Bass ?

    Has anyone ever used The Morley Man FX Boost for Bass Guitar ? I saw one on ebay auction and won it for 36.00 and can't wait to try it out. No, I'm not really worried because I've used guitar effects on my bass before, I was wondering if there were any other players who've done the same thing...

    Best Bass for HEAVY METAL?

    Here's what you do: Get yourself a Precision Bass and put some Quarter Pounders in that sucker and some EB Flatwound and play it through a bass Muff and a Peavey. That should be metal enough for anybody.

    How important is it for me to use my pinky on the 4th fret?

    The whole thing I've found is this..if using your pinky works for you then do it, if it's difficult try to work it in if you think your style of play needs it, don't force it. I've been doing it since I started playing but I learned on a double bass and we were taught to use the pinky, it...

    Are there any genres where the Fender Jazz bass doesn't look right?

    I'm thinking maybe a Motley True tribute band. I'm sure you wouldn't see one n a KISS tribute band. They are without a date one of the best sounding basses I've ever played though.

    How important is it for me to use my pinky on the 4th fret?

    I've always used My pinky, it just works better for Me and it was taught to Me early in My learning playing the bass so now it just seems natural, I've tried dropping it once or twice but I just don't get the reach I like.

    How important is it for me to use my pinky on the 4th fret?

    My play style is pointer, ring and pinky...yeah I know that sounds messed up right ? I learned on an upright bass and thats how We were taught how to play it, but I tell you what it really strengthened My pinky playing that way.
