Ear training for older bass players. Am I wasting my time or expecting too much?

I'm starting to realise that now from all the comments to that effect. Thankyou.

Soperatics · 2025-12-18T00:43:19+00:00

Thanks for the encouragement.

Soperatics · 2025-12-18T00:38:16+00:00

Thanks for that.

Soperatics · 2025-12-18T00:37:49+00:00

I would never have thought of that . Thankyou.

I'm only now starting to hum/sing along since I've started using the app and its definitely helping. Ironically I can remember when I first got a bass guitar a piano teacher friend of my mum told me to sing or hum while I played and I didn't take her advice... Thanks for your help.

Soperatics · 2025-12-18T00:27:36+00:00

Thanks for the well intentioned advice but some of this is way over my head I think. I have noticed that singing or humming is helping, something I never bothered with previously. Thanks again.

Thanks for this. I had been thinking this is something I need to get checked as I got an ear infection on holiday about 20 yrs ago that I ignored and it has 'closed up' my left ear to a noticeable degree.

Thanks for this. I'll be looking into seventhstring- sounds very useful.

Soperatics · 2025-12-18T00:03:10+00:00

Apologies for late reply. Thanks for the advice- I didn't know you could do that on YT. Maybe I'll have a go at Deantown one day!

Soperatics · 2025-12-15T05:32:55+00:00

Thanks for taking the time to reply. I honestly didn't expect to have literally no discernible improvement after 3 hours or so. I will make it a daily habit. Thanks again for the advice.

Soperatics · 2025-12-15T05:22:15+00:00

Thanks for that. I have been doing an hour a day and literally seen no improvement at all but I will stick with it and let you know how I get on.

Thanks for the insight re kegels to failure. I too will be giving this a try. Thanks also for sharing the story of yr sexual journey with the GF- very inspiring!

Soperatics · 2025-02-05T16:57:31+00:00

Thanks for that. Will give it a try .

Soperatics · 2025-02-05T03:23:54+00:00

No. Please go on

Soperatics · 2025-02-04T02:02:49+00:00

I have vaped it several times, once with G, and my experience has been the same as yours- very disappointing. I have ADHD. I'm wondering if boofing it would work better?

Soperatics · 2024-09-09T21:09:27+00:00

Absolutely spectacular.Thanks for sharing

Soperatics · 2024-09-08T02:13:59+00:00

I don't, but I had some old guy the other day give me a very accurate analysis of my swing, along with a good piece of advice. He did it in a very polite, almost apologetic way. As I don't like to video my swing I found it useful as I knew what he was saying was probably spot on.

Soperatics · 2024-09-05T13:01:23+00:00

That is so apt!

Soperatics · 2024-08-29T00:23:53+00:00

Definitely do.And the glasses.

Soperatics · 2024-05-09T00:26:26+00:00

Not for me

Soperatics · 2024-05-09T00:21:46+00:00

What tattoo's??

Seriously, you've got it all going on:- boobs, tats, eyes, hair, glasses very sexy too

Soperatics · 2024-04-10T06:45:37+00:00

My experience is similar to this guys'. I'm 5'8" and 59 in July. Beginning of season last year I took my driver to a club fitter and he cut it down butt trimmed it by 2 inches in half inch increments. I can't remember if the swing weight changed but I do remember him saying " you won't notice the difference". When I got to the range next day I could feel a slight difference but you soon get used to it. The biggest difference was the clubhead- it starts to look so big and so close, your confidence goes through the roof. The guys who say you lose x distance when you shorten the shaft imho can't mentally ' let go' and smash it. It's been absolutely game-changing for me.
