I play bass. Ibanez BTB 5 string.
honestly... ive never played a five string. i prefer six over four though because the neck on a six is flatter. the rounded neck on a 4 string makes my thumb bend all wierd and then i get the feeling in my thumb that u get when u hit ur funny bone.Tantemøkken;8687272 said:I'm not a bass-player, I just love to make weird sounds on it.
I just wondered, how much better do it feel to have six strings to play on versus four?
Six strings versus five?
Aight so here are all my latest thoughts on playing bass:
I'm going to start playing with my fingers again now that my cut has healed up. The scar tissue is still a bit stiff but my middle finger has all the necessary range of motion, and I just need to focus on developing strength with it again (three weeks without playing with my fingers = blargh).
I traded in my line6 LD175 for a 410 cab so everyone could hear me at practice. I just use the GK Goldline 500 I use for shows, since leaving it at home doesn't accomplish much. Still planning on using my 810 for gigs though.
I really want to replace my bridge pickup with a matching Lace Alumitone Bass bar, the stock pickup sounds great at practice but gets really fuzzy at stage volume. But I have to get a new car first so transportation can become less of an issue.
yeah how do i build up my speed?Don't be gay.
What do you need tips on? Playing style? Instruments? Band chemistry?
