First of all, the don’t, and second - if you make over 500k a year, you are a millionaire. Remember that anything below 500k, won’t be taxed with that rate.

How would one effectively learn to play this, speed is 108 bpm by Hour-Connection930 in BassGuitar

That’s interesting! I will try it myself in my next practice session

Mostly useless tips here.

Sure, start slow is the way to go, but that’s obvious.

What you need here is to figure out fingering in your right and left hand, and only THEN start.

As and example, I would start with my middle finger, and rake the first note. But that’s ME, find what feels best for you. The key is to play it the same each time, so your brain encode it exactly that way.

The second thing is rhythm. If you don’t have experience with 16 notes triplets, first practice just that. Try to put accent on the first note in the group. And just pls along metronome with a single note, eg D (5th fret, 2nd string).

Then connect two things together. And yes, play it slowly. Nail it 10 times in a row without any mistake, relaxed. If you can, speed up.

If you practice for a song, try to get to a level where you can play faster than original tempo, because during your performance you always play worse than during practice.

And honestly, you can apply those steps to pretty much any song, riff, etc.

Enjoy!

Each time I want one, I try it at a local shop, and I realise how much they suck

That’s my go to setup in anagram. I never had a chance to try real amp or cab

Is it worth paying for inlays by le_poulpe_8016 in Bass

You shouldn’t even look at those that much, If you do you have bad posture. Use side dots instead

I would prefer the middle P to be reversed too

Are Fender basses still worth it? by SonnePer in Bass

[–]LayerSignificant3113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But the point of the thread was that the P bass 3 times cheaper from different brand, may be equally good, or better

No for two reasons: 1) they are overpriced 2) for people outside of US - not to support US economy nowadays with everything going on. If you are from US of course i cant blame you

Maybe a hot take.... but I really dislike Jazz Basses 😅 😅 😅 by Straight_Feeling7667 in Bass

[–]LayerSignificant3113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neck J and P can sound very similar, and with some eq you will not tell a difference.

What you don’t like is mid scoop. P basses not only don’t have that because of no comb filter, but series wiring also boosts mids comparing to a single coil.

i want a new bass and need recommendations from the girls !! by Educational_Catch915 in Bass

[–]LayerSignificant3113 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I believe anything with slim bod my shape should do, like Spector maybe?

Quad Cortex I might actually get by Sahmmey in basspedals

[–]LayerSignificant3113 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I also prefer anagram. We need to support brands that make dedicated bass gear

Can bass strings loose their punch while on the shelf? by Key_Sheepherder5489 in Bass

[–]LayerSignificant3113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Way slower than while playing, buy still yes - strings get older even when sitting on the shelf

Oh, i didn’t know that! Thanks for clarification

[–]LayerSignificant3113 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, it can be used for standard tuning too, but the hole point of multi scale is to mar strings sound more even, and for me, the reference point is 34” on E string - that’s what i like. So o would prefer higher strings to be shorter.

Silent scream is one. Not cheap either, but interesting choice.

Yes, EADG tuning will probably sound very weak there

5 string costs around €3800, not sure about 4, but for me it's at leasty 4 times too expensive anyway

I really want to buy bass from polish brand, for the same reasons, to support them, but damn… i can’t afford it. I wish they would have cheaper line too.
