3 weeks ago I got this blood blister on fingertip of the index of my fretting hand, now it's 3 weeks that I don't play my bass becasue I don't know what to do with that blister! For the frist 4-5 days it was hurting, now is two weeks that the pain it's completely gone, is not inflated at all, is...

maybe I got a wrong leaning technique? I know a lot of riffs but I can play only 2 songs decently for their whole lenght along with the track, and I have been playing bass for almost a year. There are some hand positions I find very simple to learn, but there are some patterns that are really...

I found some sites where to buy music sheets, but to buy you got to have an account. The thing I don't understand is why should I insert my address if the tab is in PDF, or at least I think is meant to a PDF file to download, and not paper sheets they send you at home.. I want to be sure that...

the strings have no arc, are all at the same height. And further if I low the action like I want, some frets after the 12° buzz. I read that for the arc of the strings I should loosen the truss rod, but for the buzz I should tighten it, so what should I do? I'm a bit lost..

I need some tips about how to change the strings, since I never changed them yet. I already read a lot about that and watched a lot of videos, but I still have doubt about a couple of things. First, since I have to take off all of the strings in order to be able to clean the fretboard...

what does it mean? and is that a problem? in the sense that for example when I turn the tone knob, instead of change the tone, the volume change..or vice versa. But it happens very few times (in a year it happened something like 3-4 times..)

I want to regulate the action, but I don't know which is the size of the allen screw I got to use to adjust it

as the title

Soon I will do my first strings change since I began play (december 2012). I don't know the gauge of my current strings, just know that they're light d'addario because I was just at the beginning and they suggest me to put that strings on my bass (indeed they did, I never changed a string yet)...

this is my first bass, and I'm learning since some months, so I am at the very beginning. Soon I will change the strings, but I'm wondering wich strings could be the best for me. A good starting point would be know the features of my current strings , but how can I determine the gauge and all...

I play bass since 8 months, and I learnt to play an entire song decently only one month ago (but started to learn this song 2 months ago)

Even if every string is perfectly in tune, when I press on the 12° fret the note is a bit diesis. That means I have to lenghten the strings, that's right? And in every video I've seen about how to lenghten the strings they say that you have to turn the screwdriver clockvise...and so I did, but I...

Hi guys! In most of the songs I learn there are a lots of chords, and I usually play with fingers. The problem is that with all this chords my nails gets eat out, till the point that I have no more enough nail to do the chords, and at this point I usually use a pick, but is not too comfortable...

My left hand fingers are not straight on the fretboard, indeed the calluses on the index and on the pinky are not in the “centre” of the fingertips, but I have them on the side of the fingertip, next to the nail. I tried to put my fingers perfectly straight on the fretboard but it’s a lot of...

Hi everybody! I play bass since almost 8 months. I own an Ibanez soundgear gio PJ bass, unfortunately it has some little problems 'cause I bought it secondhand, but it allows me to learn to play decently anyway, and since I am a beginner I cannot complain too much about this bass! But, when I...
