Larkin - Rough Song Idea on Bass

I've been thinking of starting a bass heavy band where I play bass lines like this.
I wanted to record this snip of a song idea and maybe get some peoples reaction to it.
I know it's a little sloppy, but I played it through several times before I recorded it and this is about how it would fit with a metronome. Couldn't use a metronome because i change the tempo. Hopefully my internal metronome is good enough for this to be listenable.

Thats sounds bad ass! perfect for a 3 piece band or 4 piece if the 4th is a piano. i have a 3 piece band and i use the bass as a more melodic unusual way im not as good as you but it sounds like an awesome idea. hey i saw a vid where you had a fender deluxe bass i have the same bass but i cant figure out the knobs on it i never had an active bass, can you help me out with that how to adjust the knobs??? please

@jmelchor29 You can google all the information about your bass. If you had the same as mine (Fender Active Deluxe P Bass Special) then you should have Master Volume, Pan, Treble, Bass, Mids. The pan simply pans from one pickup to the other, So all the way toward the neck should get you just the P pickup, and all the way toward the back should get you just the J pickup. There's tons of info about EQing on the internet, just play around and find something you like if nothing else.
