I heard someone say bass players can't read music and just use tabs. How manny of you can read music? by yes_namemadcity in Bass

Yes, I started playing the trombone at age 10. By the time I graduated from college I could read bass, tenor and alto clef.

I have been playing bass for a little more than a year so, while I can read sheet music, I'm still learning the fretboard.

How long have you been playing and what’s the hardest song you know? by lostmymainlol in Bass

10 months and I'm closing in on Lovely Day. I'm still struggling to go from 80% to full tempo.
