Hi everyone,
Bass lover from UK here. I recently bought a Washburn bass as a beginner model however it arrived with one of the pickups damaged and now (after regular use) has a faulty jack socket.
Spoke to shop and they quoted repairs around £30. However, just sent it back under warrantee and Amazon is sending me a whole new one!
Few questions I s’pose:
1) is this a common problem?
2) just been steadily working through some scale books (got to major 6ths and double octaves). Could you recommend a practice routine? Trying to split 2 hrs into 1/2 hr slots.
3) My teacher has put me in roughly at grade 3/4 rock school standard. Is there any bass literature or YouTube channels which I need to follow or check out? I’m super into odd time signatures, jazz n funk grooves. Michael Pipoquinha and Michael League are cool.
Tschüss
