  • I don't get it. Is it standard tuning?

  • if someones practices NONSTOP (me) how long will it take until i can do this without 3 of the fingers spazzing out on me?

  • @NnysVelvetRevolver Well if you really practice NONSTOP your gonna cramps or some shit which is no good a and then you gotta start over. Anyway if you haven't done chromatics you should start on that first. Like some where below the 7th fret and above the 15th fret. Then work your way around. Don't think about how long it's gonna take just think about what you can do to get better and try to improve every week. Just be patient with it. Good luck.

    haha, gonna be hard to not play nonstop since i cant be in the sane room as a bass without playing for 2 hours. i do the sliding the whole freaking hand around thing (dunno if theres a name for it) and i do pretty well for using 1-2 fingers. Of course im a beginner and still need lotsa practice. But hey, at least i can nail one song!

    :P

  • @NnysVelvetRevolver Same here bout the bass thing haha, but i thought you meant for like 10 hrs a day. Ik ppl that do that. Anyway, if you're only using two fingers then you dont need to try this lol, learn chromatics first, then this will be a lot easier. Bad Habits For Bass: The 1234 Exercise< that vid is good for startin off chromatics. What song is that btw.

  • @2MrTwoCents2

    haha, AC/DC - Highway to hell!

    i'm actaully trying to play Meatplow by Stone Temple Pilots right now, just having trouble on the chorus and pre-chorus

  • @NnysVelvetRevolver Oh cool lol. Well when you really want a challange (please don't do it know though, but check it out), look up Buckethead-Final Wars. Sounds so heavy but the intro is killer, for me anyway

  • this is a GREAT exercise. after only a few days my hand feels sooo much stronger
