Thank you gents for taking the time out of your day to try and help me out. Looks like it's back to the metronome and trying to find a good tutor. 

So here's the thing. I've been playing bass for a long time. The problem is I still don't feel like I'm any good. No matter how much I practice I don't play well consistently. I've tried metronomes. I've tried playing new and old material including scales. At this point for all my practicing I should be a well oiled machine. It's almost as if my muscle memory donesnt work. I never feel confident or comfortable playing something no matter how many times I play it. My fingers/hands just don't cooperate. I hate to give up on my passion but at this point it seems like I'm going nowhere. Sorry if this is in the wrong forum but thank you.
