I just got my first bass it’s a fretless kala u bass. I’m having a blast with it but idk if it’s in the standard tuning. Any advice or exercises y’all recommend? I can’t really slap on a u bass It gets a lot of buzz and slapping against the fretboard.
 
Hello and welcome to T.B.

The link below will provide a lot of useful information, though as a complete beginner, nothing beats a good teacher. He/she will get you off to a much better start.

The other link is a chronological set of lessons, starting off very basic and gradually building from there.

Best of luck. :bassist:

How to get started?
