4 Strings Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I have found in my too many years to admit that playing goes like that, plateau, rise which satisfies for a while before the next plateau. Normally some sort of progress sets me on the next rise, if you're already in a band or that's not doing it and learning a couple of new songs you thought you couldn't play isn't happening either, pay for some lessons. Just buy a handful you can tell the teaching person you just need a shot in the arm. You'll quickly pick up stuff you wouldn't have otherwise and it'll give another 6 months!

gjones Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Change the tuning on your bass. I recommend F# Eb C A. Then try to play those old boring licks of yours in the right key...........that'll get the old grey matter working overtime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cameronj279 Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Mess around with new techniques or chords (if you haven't already). I've found learning guitar parts of songs to be pretty fun. Also annoys the guitarist a little when he has a soft guitar intro and then he realises it sounds fifteen times better on bass! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rOB Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Are you writing songs? If not, why not give it a go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
