Hey All, Before christmas, i bought a Fender '62 reissue P-bass. I recently bought new (thinner) strings, and i seem to get a lot of buzz/deadness above the 14th frets on all strings. The D and G dont really buzz, just have no real sustain. The A and E strings buzz. Normally, i'd raise...

Right, so.. Today, i arrive to music class to be told we're preforming in front of 50ish people. I've missed the last few classes, which are once a week, for various reasons. We hadnt chosen a song yet. We picked one me and the guitarist (who had to borrow a guitar, incidentally.. managed...

Hey All, So, i'm going to New Zealand for 5 weeks in march. long planned holiday, woo. anyway, i dont want to not play bass all that time. But Also I dont want to bring my fender (yes, i know ew, fender :P)I was thinking of grabbing a really cheap fretless acoustic, can you suggest one...

Hey, Decided to crush these two topics into one, means i wont push anyone else out :P 1) Is there any good way to improve my musical ear? My and many of my friends teachers can play songs by ear, and i was wondering if you could suggest good ways to learn this? or at least speed up the...

Hey, I was wondering if there's anywhere you can enter your bass' serial number on the fender site? i found a basic year by year guide, but is there anything else? i know the gibson site has one... (i think) :P _Kar.

Hey guys, so i've decided that i want to do the whole band thing. i was in a band about 2 years ago, but tbh i wasn't that good, and i still was better than most of them :crying: So, i was wondering if you guys could suggest any songs that would be good for auditions, if (and when) they say...

Hey all, So, i'd like to get some basic recording stuff, for recording some solo bass jams and possibly some band stuff in the future, i hope (well, not IN a band currently, but playing with friends) Basically, i've currently got the free trial of Reaper, with a normal PC audio cable...

So far, i've been pretty lucky, as i've only played very few preformances.. anyways, last band i was in, we were set to play the guitarists brother's confirmation or something. pretty big thing. anyways, we practised a few times, but i never heard the singer sing. Guitarist and Drummer...

Has Anyone used these strings? how do they perform in terms of feel, tone, life etc? thanks, _Kar.

Hey Ray, Sorry if you've had to answer these few questions loads of times before, but.. Okay, so.. I've been wanting to learn to slap better for ages. I'm pretty good at fingerstyle/picking, but slapping is just something i'm not great at. When i use my thumb, it doesnt sound.. all that...

Hey Guys (and gals :P), Okay, so before christmas i bought myself a 62' P-Bass reissue. Guy was using lots of drop tuning, so has pretty heavy roundwounds on them. They're nice and all, but i prefer a lighter string. Also like the feel of Flats, but never actually used a pair on my own bass...

Hey All, I recently bought a Fender P-bass 62 reissue, tis awesome. However, the guy i bought it off had some pretty heavy strings on it, for drop tuning. I wanna get some thinner ones, and i was looking at some DR Black Beauties. (i like unusual strings). They dont seem to be cheap, bargain...

Hey, Alright, on this forum, i saw a post saying that USA Fender Jazz's can be got for.. $800. I'm guessing that's new. Here in Ireland, they're closer to $2000. Sounds like it'd honestly be a much better idea to find a bass i like and get it shipped.. Are these figures right? _Kar.

Hey All, (My first post, woo :P) Anyway, I've been playing bass for about 2 years.. I play mostly rock, alternative, that kinda thing, but i want to get better at slap, just cos it sounds/looks good mostly. I'm still using the first set of gear i got, though. I've got a Cort Action bass...
