I can't hear the bass behind the tapping part at 1:20 :( please anyone?!

Can someone help me learn a part of the song "Fives" by Guthrie Govan? Its at the tapping part at about 1:20 of the song. It is so hard to pick up by ear. :crying:

What do you call those strings without the metal wounding near the end of the string? Is it a specific brand or did people just cut them off? Thanks.

What is Seth Govan using in Waves and Fives? Seth Govan is Guthrie Govan's bassist in his Erotic Cakes album. Can anyone help me identify the effects used by Seth in Waves and Fives? I can't seem to figure it out. Thank you TB! Kevin

When I play live, I just set the amp to flat. I adjust my sound with the knobs on my bass. Is this correct or should I be doing something else? Thanks TB'ers! Cheers!

To achieve perfect low action do I need to adjust the bridge and truss rod accordingly? Or does setting the neck dead flat mean lowest action possible without fret buzz(through amp)? Thank you Tb'ers! Cheers!

Hey TB peeps, I just changed my strings and the action changed. The Gauge is the same. It is an EB 6 String Long Scale Slinky @ 130-100-80-65-45-32. The action was not the same after changing my strings. Is this normal? Or should I be adjusting the truss rod @ 1/8 a turn? My bass is an EBMM...

please! i was asked to do a "jam" with some guys over this song and maye they might ask me to solo over it too! please! what scales/modes should i use? :help:

Can someone fix this? Invalid Link Removed Whenever I record, I hear a hissing sound on playback. My audio interface is an M-Audio fast track pro. So the whole setup would be: Bass > Boss LMB-3 > M-Audio > Laptop with windows 7 64bit using ASIO4ALL driver + Fruity Loops 9 & then to some...

What is a good and cheap monitor for recording my bass? I am looking for something cheap, I am still new to this and I don't think I should buy the $1500-$2000++ ones. All comments are appreciated! Thanks!

I heard that my M-Audio Fast Track Pro is not powerful enough for bass and I need to have an external preamp. What options do I have? Does a bass equalizer count as a preamp? Sorry I am not well versed in these fields. All insights are appreciated! Thanks!

I just bought an M-Audio Fast Track Pro from some music shop. I am currently on a vacation right now and I only bought my laptop with me and a headphone. I am using a EBMM Bongo 6 to record random stuff. My laptop has Windows 7 64 bit installed in it and the latest driver for my audio...

After a few hours of playing with it, i felt that the neck is actually heavier than the body. Feels weird at first but i got used to it. For those who are planning on buying one, don't hesitate! I'm currently "thief-proofing" this, lol.

Does anyone know the exact string gauge? Thanks, Kevin

i really like the feel of the yamaha strings(the one that comes with the bass when you buy it). it just feels so good because even though the action is low, the tension is almost the same. even if you tune down. can anyone recommend any identical strings? i jsut wanna try it out. i will...

I found these at the EB forums, they just killed me. Is this really possible?:eek:

I don't really know the difference between the two. Maybe the output? Can someone shed some light on this please! :confused:

Which one is better? I'm playing metal, progressive metal, alternative, jazz (alone lol). Which one is the bass for me? I have read a couple of threads about the versatility of the Bongo 6. I'm still not solid on my decision with my Bongo 6. I don't know if they were true. A $1890(EBMM)...

I'm from a distant place where no Musicman Ernie Ball Basses are for sale except online. But I don't trust the online market that much since I have never tried it before. I'm 19, I want to buy a Musicman Ernie Ball Bongo 6 from Denver. My uncle is there and I will ask him to buy it for me (my...

Hi, its gonna be my first time to change my pickups, the current one is a bartolini mk1 neck and bridge. I am going to change it because its really really old and I want to keep up with the new trend. The B string also sounds muddy and unclear. I was thinking of an Ultra Jazz 5™ from...

I tried using metal polisher on my bridge and it didn't work like it did with my frets. Maybe it was because of a coating or something? I do not know what polish I should use for the bridge of my Ibanez SR505. Need help bad :/

I'm 19 yrs old and I currently am using a very short strap. My arms are in line with my shoulders when I'm standing. Is this habit okay for my age? Does this make me look old? :crying: Everyone else has long straps and their bass guitars are just below there with their balls :hmm: I wonder why?

Is anyone using one that he can recommend?

I'm using tabs and guitar pro of the song is really complicated. Does using tabs make my musical consciousness lesser?

I'm a bass effect noob and I don't use effects when playing. :( Can someone teach me the difference between pedals (the one with multiple pedals with all the confusing knobs) and the single ones(the one with a single switch and a few knobs)? I'm really confused and I wanna get into using...

Hi I'm sort of a new bassist. I've been playing bass for a few years now. I practice at random times in a week and i don't record my practice. My influences are Dream Theater, Metallica, Pantera, Gordian Knot, Jelly Jam and Symphony X. I've done a few of their songs, As I Am, In The Name of...
