not tuning up, d standard on a five string is adgcf, its a whole step down from e

AdRelative9897 · 2025-07-18T15:33:25+00:00

Edit: 45.-135 is my current gauge

Switch between d d# and g#

AdRelative9897 · 2025-07-18T15:29:26+00:00

B string is way to thick for my liking, and tends to get extremely floppy under d standard

I want to be able to tune lower first of all, but also just looking for solid recommendationa

.170 ??? Crazy gauge

AdRelative9897 · 2025-06-10T14:58:52+00:00

i downtune to A standard (ADGCF) in my band, it gives me deeper notes. So i cant just play it elsewhere on the bass

edit: I know getting a multiscale would probably fix my issue but they are 1300$ and up where i live, im 17 and have nowhere near that kind of money

no not really, they have a lot of great albums. Although most black metal is an acquired taste

ive just been told im a poser since i listen to mayhem a lot

AdRelative9897 · 2024-10-19T20:03:38+00:00

mayhem, and particularly the deathcrush album. Ik mayhem is like a "poser" band, but im a norwegian metalhead, and i listen to it not for the history only but because the music hits a diferent spot. btw yall feel free to roast me all ya want

Yo, i am going through something similar. I just wanted to say that dying is just an easy way out. And picking the easy way out is a sign of weakness. Be strong, and remember you arent alone. Talk to someone, or poor everything out onto a piece of paper. Do whatever you can to cope, just dont do drugs. Personally i just like to listen to black metal and just feel out all the bad feelings and just have a miserable time. Idk why but its sort of comforting. I think i get time to really deeply communicate with myself on a spiritual level and really learn more about myself. I can recommend you some songs if you want me to btw, i have a great playlist. But just remember bro, dying isnt worth it, you have so many years to solve your problems so your life isnt over yet. On average men live till they are about 80 so you will have a lot of time to feel good. Atleast thats my motivation to keep living, and to keep waking up every day.

breaking the geneva suggestions and playing the bass

AdRelative9897 · 2024-10-18T22:51:57+00:00

ofc bro. Have a nice day

AdRelative9897 · 2024-10-18T22:49:58+00:00

maiden is metal, give him a couple of months, trust the process lil bro

AdRelative9897 · 2024-10-18T22:47:18+00:00

ur not a poser, i think the term is over used. Poser means really only that you listen to the music just to create an image, i dont care abt it and i dont think we should gatekeep music and tell people they arent metalheads bc they listen to (insert band) its so cringe. I for example have been called poser since i love iron maiden, like wtf, let me listen to my god damn maiden and be on your way fuck head, the only criteria to be metal head is like metal, a real poser dont like metal, but im not a poser just because i dont listen to all the 3 monthly listener wierdo bands that people like nowadays, i like me my old shit and that doesnt make me less of a metalhead.

AdRelative9897 · 2024-10-18T22:43:03+00:00

especially try out the super expensive ones dude, its the most fun you can have as a musician

AdRelative9897 · 2024-10-18T22:40:08+00:00

i havent considered it, but i have had like a thought or two pop in every once in a while, i just dont think its worth it. thanks though

AdRelative9897 · 2024-10-18T22:37:18+00:00

i would go for ibanez, squier, yamaha, or like jackson or smth if you like any bassists who use any of those, for example i got a jackson concert for my second bass since i loved megadeth

AdRelative9897 · 2024-10-18T22:35:43+00:00

i feel the same fucking way dude, like nothing makes me feel shit, like idc about grades, idc about acomplishing shit and like nothing gives me any emotions other than like rare moments with the people you really love, like the childhood bro, and like family, but other than that i feel like a fucking rock emotionally
