TV On The Radio is a great band to check out. That's where I get my inspiration from mostly.

When that song comes onto the radio I have to literally restrain myself from hurling all over the place.

I use an Alienware 14-inch to run REAPER when I'm producing drum-n-bass, but something much less expensive should do the trick, like a Samsung or one of the Dell Inspirons.

KOAN Sound - The Edge. Just do it.

Alright thanks for the info. I'm a beginner so I should probably refrain from getting into the habit of it.

When I'm playing on the E string, particularly whilst playing very fast, I slap my fingers against the bass.. making an audible click sound. I find it much easier to play fast this way. When I'm playing on any other string I will let my finger continue on to silently hit on the string above it...

..who absolutely hates the appearance of Music Man basses?? :eyebrow:

I'll take number 7 then. Flats rule!

It's the name of the genre ¬¬ I would assume it means alternative to mainstream rock.

Anthony Barret - No. 2 chiron griffin - No. 3

Hey. Couldn't find one of these already so I hope there isn't already one. Obviously I'll be claiming spot number 1! :D My favourite alternative band at the moment is Cage The Elephant, you guys should check them out if you haven't already. My bass is a T-Bird which I think really looks...

Can I get a number? I play in Drop D almost all the time.

I love flats so much. It just really suits the tone I'm going for, and my style of playing.

Thinking of trying this out. Only have one bass which I love and spend a lot of time polishing, replacing strings, etc. so it seems fitting that I should set it up properly too. Was looking at this nice kit here: Invalid Link Removed Does this seem like a good investment to you guys??

Definitely learn drums. You can't play rock on a piano.

Use your bass as source for a vocoder chained into a synth like Massive for ultimate fun.

Timmy C from RATM.. I think it's a Fender Precision but I'm open to correction?

The Thunderbird is amazing for punk and alternative, wouldn't be so certain on using it for slap though...

Maybe you should cut your nails like normal people..

Timmy C. from Rage Against the Machine.. Flea is a good one too.

Can't say I've ever tried that.

As a player of indie/punk type stuff, I thought a T-Bird would be perfect.

Hey could I get a number for this? I like to do simple yet effective basslines.

Alright, sounds pretty cool. I love the whole customization options that come with a guitar.

Hi, I'm a noob when it comes to bass, I've just bought my first bass which is an Epi Thunderbird-IV. I've been playing drums up until now so I'm still quite unfamiliar with the ways that guitars actually work, so I was wondering what people mean when they talk about the electronics of their...

I'd like to join this. I used to own a Pearl Target Series kit that I played for 3 years. Sold those a while ago though. Goes to show why I'm a very rhythmic bassist.

I like the straight-forwardness of 4 strings personally.

I just use them sometimes because I prefer the crisp tone you get. But I always learn to play a piece using both techniques.

Hi. I'm someone who does this too. It just feels natural to me. My cousin is the same, he plays guitar, he's left-handed but plays like right-handed. Not only does it feel way better to play right-handed (even though I do most everything else with left) I don't think I would ever use a...

Hi everyone. I'm new to bass so I just got myself an Epi Thunderbird-IV in Vintage Sunburst. I'm really happy because people have talked about neckdive problems but my bass came with the strap button on the back of the neck, it must be an updated model or something. Anyway I have to say I'm...
