I can memorize my parts pretty well; it's locking in with the tempo beforehand that's difficult

Now I've only experience with the Black Beauties and the High Beams. I put the Black Beauties on my Sire M2 (lefthanded), but I couldn't really get a sound that I particularly liked. This may have something to do with it being an active bass; it was just a bit too many controls for me as a...

How would such an exercise look like?

Could you perhaps explain inversions to me and how to practice these? From my understsanding as a semi-beginner, it's by taking a note from a chord and playing it below the root, right?

The roasted neck does look insanely appealing :)

I don't 'need' it as in that I need it to stay alive, but I just really want one, since I only have two jazz basses (one fretless) and a Sterling Stingray, but most of my favorite players are P-bass players. I've been looking around on local Facebook groups, Marketplace, Reverb, etc. for months...

Hey everybody! I've been considering getting a Precision bass to round out my arsenal but I've been doubting between getting a Fender Player/MiM Precision and a Sire P5. Since I'm located in Europe (the Netherlands), lefthanded Fender Ps are basically unobtainable everywhere, whether it's...

Glad to hear you like it :)

It is the final cut, but it's meant as a demo for the lead guitarist to send it as his application to a conservatory. The song is indeed a bit long, I agree. I wouldn't for example repeat the chorus-riff 4 times after the first chorus for example. Glad to hear you enjoy my playing, that makes me...

Listen to our song here! Quick sidenote; during the middle piano part, I usually don't play this busy but I only had one take to do this :/ As a bit of background info, I have been playing bass for the past three years, and I am self-taught. I used to be a bedroom-bassist, but the past few...

I'm a lefthanded bassplayer, and whenever I'm shopping for fretless models on Thomann, Sadowsky has like 9 models. I've never tried one personally, but I know Jason Newsted used them for a while while in Metallica!

The Sire P5 is exactly what you're looking for! Marcus Miller P5 Alder-5 TS

I personally have the Sire M2 but in a lefty config. The ergonomics are great, but I'm not a huge fan of the sound right now.
