Hola TBers. So yesterday I was repairing a laptop, and as always happens, I injured myself. I got a cut on my index finger, right on the area that strums. I tried to play at practice tonight, with a band-aid, but the pressure applied kinda hurt. I have to play tomorrow in church, and...

So right now, I have Fender Squier (quite possibly a fake lol) which I bought three years ago. I have progressed quite well, and the boss (my wife) says I am approved for a new bass come January. :hyper: I happened upon this bass, and I am really liking the looks. I am more than likely going...

So I have done pretty well for myself with fingerstyle playing. I wish to learn pick now, so I can be more versatile. So I went out and bought a Tortex 1.14mm pick. I tried it tonight at practice . . . omg :help: I was getting so lost. Could not find my strings with the pick. could not...

Out of curiosity ... What are the first song(s) you learned after deciding to pick up a bass? To get the ball rolling, mine were: *Nothing Else Matters - Metallica *Like a Stone - Audioslave *Lit Up - Buckcherry *My Own Worst Enemy - Lit Learned them all the first day I picked up a bass...

So I have been playing for about 2 years now. Still have my original equipment (Squire and some no name 100w combo). I have actually learned a lot, but am still learning at a good pace. I play in our church band (about 30-50 people in the church). :bassist: So I am looking to get a good...

So, I want to join a band in a few months (most likely a cover band) . . . What kind of pay should I expect per gig. I know it has to be worked out with the venue, and it should get split with the band. I am just wondering how much (or little lol) I should look forward to . . . or not.

I saw someone link a small program that would slow down mp3's without changing the pitch. Anyone know what/where it was?

Okay. I am going to play a D. What is the difference of playing an open D as opposed to the 5th fret on the A string?

I have been playing consistently for a little over a month. I seem to have picked up the bass fairly quickly. God has blessed me. I can read tabs, but prefer the music that has chords over the lyrics (so I get to learn what notes are on what string/fret and what notes are in chords). I...

Okay. have been playing for a month or two now. I have progressed alot, but still have my whole life ahead of me lol. So I play with my fingers. I am fine with that. But I would like to compliment that with some pick. I figure if I learn both right now, being fresh, it would be better...

Got myself a bass. I had alot of bills come up since I first decided to start playing, so was unable to buy anything a a year and a half ago :( But I just got my Fender Squier today. 28 years old and trying to learn something new :help: Any pointers for a newbie?

Hey peeps. I am interested in starting an indie record label. Do you know of any good books that will point me in the right direction?

I am taking up the bass. It has been a dream of mine for awhile, just never got around to it. I have messed around with them before, and am pretty good at figure things out on my own (I taught myself to play piano). I am 27, so I am starting kind of late :scowl: But anyways. What kind of...
