well i think its best if you start to take lessons. its hard to teach you from here.

remember - rhythm is the most important thing!

Yeah but I'm too stingy to take lessons..I could ask my friends that play bass though. Anything else? and thanks!

im getting a bass too.
for now i just play the bass parts for songs (mostly easy blink ones) on a normal guitar
i cant get my head around using fingers instead of a pick, is it easier on an actual bass?
