raynards Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Hi everyone. i'm a late starter on the Bass(50 next month) been playing/practising (on own) about 16 months. squire j bass/roland cube 30w. i have put flats on and have got used to them now, did find them 'sticky ish' at first looking now for a new/used bass, dunn/jamerson/babbit sound is what i like, so have been looking at/thinking Pbass Any advice/tips from you folks would be gratefully recieved on Bass and amp. Have'nt played live yet, but have learnt about 35 songs to date mainly 60's soul all to recordings. although quite daunted by the prospect, i think i need to play play live, again advice/tips very much welcomed Still plugging away at it and absolutely love it. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ped Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Welcome to Basschat - good choice of 'sound' - flats were a good move. I like the lower tension TI flats as I found others quite tight and harder to play. I think P-bass is a good choice for what you describe, definitely. Get stuck in and welcome! ped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnozzalee Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Welcome to Basschat! Make sure you hang on to your Roland Bass Cube 30!! Mega handy - I've had mine 6 years now . I'm a thomastik Infeld flatwound meets Gibson EB3 fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
