How much spare time does bass playing/practice take up for you? Do you have time for other interests or hobbies? Or are you completely immersed into playing so much that you barely have time to eat? Asking out of curiosity. I have too many interests and hobbies to be able to do just one...

sedgwick, your review of IIB just confrimed my decision into signing up. I was a bit concerned of the quality/quantity of the material because of the price but I believe now that I made a good decision. I signed up last night and his response was immediate. So far so good. I also would like to...

One of the books that I am working with is Serious Electric Bass by Joel Di Bartolo. In Chapter 3, page 35, he goes on to talk about subdividing notes. Then gives examples with straight eighth notes, sixteenth notes, triplets, etc. Now, on page 37, Exercise 1, it's major scales written in...

It arrived last week, a day earlier than expected. I was pretty ecstatic when it arrived. Pretty close to the same feeling that I used to get as a kid opening that one big christmas present. It came with its own gig bag, pretty decent one too, and a tool that has a string gauge, screw drivers...

Some of the links in the Sticky above this post need to be checked. Particularly this link: Invalid Link Removed I'm pretty sure it's wrong.

I have the tab for Money from DSOTM but I'd like to have the version from Delicate Sound Of Thunder. Anyone?:hmm:

I ordered it last night from zzounds. So basically I have since turned 7 yrs old again and waiting excitedly for it to show up. Will post pictures when it is delivered. Everyone have a safe Labor Day weekend. :hyper:
