    I want to play latin bass

    ...but I have a problem. I don't know any latin music. The reason I'd like to play this style is that I've been hearing some really cool latin beats with some groovalicious bass lines under them. I'd like help in two areas: 1.) What are some good artists I should listen to? 2.) What are...

    New Rammstein

    Anyone seen their new music video? Oh My God I'm not sure if I am offended or mesmerized.

    Minors - Natural, Harmonic, Melodic!?

    I've taught myself everything I've needed to know theory and bass wise and sometimes I wish I had a teacher to guide me. But since I don't, you all are the next best thing ;) I don't understand the minor composite. I know how and when to use scales based on chord progressions and which...

    1-2-4?

    I tried asking this on that thread back a whle ago that discussed the merits of 1 -2 -4 against one finger per fret, but I never got a satisfactory answer because I don't think man people saw my question. What exactly is 1 -2 -4? Can I see somne slowly doing it? A video would be helpful if...

    A question that might earn me a few enemies

    I'm not sure if this belongs here... Anyways, I've been playing bass for about a year and some spare months, and I've gotten to be pretty good. I can sight read now, woot! Anyways, I'm finding my musical creativity to be running into a few barriers that I don't think I can do anything...

    Sight Reading!

    So I'm trying to learn to readmusic fluently. I've only been able to read for a month or so and I'm struggling, but getting there. Unfortunately all I have is magnusson's "The Art of Walking Bass" and I'm afraid it's not making much sense just yet...I can read it fine, but the progressions and...

    Inane theory question...again. What are you all going to do with me?

    So I'm off from school for the summer and I decided, why not do something useful? Help the world, cure cancer, etc. etc. Or, instead, I could be entirely self indulgant and actually learn how to read music ;D Turns out I already did know how to read music. I just was lying to myself the...

    Why can't I get Kansas???

    Ok so apparently Kansas is progressive rock. If that's the case then I've officially found a prog band that I can say that I dislike...is that normal? Am I sick? What is it about this band that is so appealing? Am I missing something? Hope was a great bassist sure, but a bassist doesn't...

    A theory question that is going to sound noobish - because it is!

    Ok I'm aware that this is a horribly easy question for some of you, but I think that I'd only be hurting myself by not asking it. Here's a background of what I know I've been playing bass for a year, started at the end of my senior year of high school. Since then I've been practicing...

    Thinnest necks?

    Just out of curiosity here...which basses have the thinnest necks? Right now I'm playing on two basses, a MIM fender jazz and a strange MTD that I think is one of a kind (it's got a weird history). The MTD is amazingin every possible way...except that the next is quite large at the nut. I...

    A horribly stupid question...

    Hey guys, first I apologise profusely if this does not belong here. If not, feel free to move it. As the title suggests, I've got a question so ridiculous that it may seem that I'm joking - I'm not. I've played bass for almost 7 months every day for several hours a day...I must say, I'm...
