I'be been looking for tabs for 'If Looks Could Kill' and 'What About Love' by Heart forever and I can't find them anywhere. I'm sure they are simple songs and I get the general concept but I'd love to double check my work on these tracks. If anyone finds or makes this Tabs I'd be super thankful!

Who else uses the Android or IPhone app for the TalkBass forums? Or uses other apps like Tabs and tuners? Feel free to suggest apps and discuss the apps that you use regularly as a bassist. Personally I use TB, G tuner, and Tabular a ton on my LG Optimus T and its helps insanely whether I'm at...

My bass is tuned to BEAD, and I just noticed that due to this the string placement is a little to the right on each string. Now when I play slap, the strings hit the magnets on the pickups and make a loud popping noise. Will raising my action help eliminate this issue? Or is this just a sad...

Forgive me if I'm a total idiot, but I'm still a bass beginner. I've posted some threads previously about other basses I've been looking into buying to replace my LTD B-50. While I do respect my ESP bass, it has terrible fret buzz issues even after a professional setup and popping some DR string...

Anyone play one of these? I've been wanting one for years because of how kick ass they look and the styling of the bridge, but I have yet to actually hear how they play. I'd love to hear some clips on this bass before I put a bid on one, as they are in the $1k range nowadays online. I'll...

Just discovering some of these online and wondering if there is an actual advantage to them other than custom placement?

I'm about to order an ESP LTD B-5E and the only thing I'm on the fence about is that its available in gloss and in satin finish. The pictures on the ESP website are too glared and decieving of this finish. When I've seen the gloss in YouTube videos the mahogany looks almost black and washed out...

I'm looking to purchase an acoustic bass in the next few weeks here, but have no experience at all with acoustic basses. I'm looking for a 4 string acoustic / electric combo with a modest budget of $400 or so... not looking for a boutique bass or anything spectacular, just a solid workhorse kind...

So I'm thinking of purchasing a body blank bass to work on myself. What's the level of difficulty involved in this process? I'm very skilled in electronics, so I'm less worried about that aspect. I think the measuring is my fear haha.

Well i'be narrowed my search for my first 5 string down to those 2 basses. They are pretty close in price, the B-5e is more expensive because it features mahogony body and ebony top. Is that worth paying the extra for alone? Mahogony vs. "Basswood". Just seeing if anyone plays either of these...

I may soon be in the market for a new bass, but as I'm still a little new to everything I have very little experience with brands and styles. Rules: Must be 5 string. Solid colored. Prefer black. PJ pickups. NO FENDER. I'd prefer a toggle over volume control too. About my style: I play both...

What are some good finger warm up and training techniques to help me start using my pinky more while fretting? I have a tendancy to fall back on my ring finger too often as my pinky just isnt strong. When I use my pinky finger to fret I end up getting a terrible buzz.

I'm not sure if this is the proper forum for this thread. Mods feel free to move it if it is not. Currently my bass is at the shop being setup and restrung. I opted to downtune to BEAD. This requires a custom filed nut on my bass, so that's being done as well. I'm really looking forward to...

I have my bass at the shop for a setup, precision tune, and restring and since it's been gone I've been like a nervous little kid on Christmas eve! I'm constantly watching my phone waiting for them to call and tell me "she's ready to come home now" hahaha. Its only been a little over a day, just...
