Excuse my ignorance as a bassist

Unread post by i like tictacs » Wed May 05, 2004 2:59 pm

I'm picking up my guitar of yonder long ago, and learning crash. I have it all, but those "x" notes. Are they the same in bass, as in you mute them/dead notes? It doesn't sound right whatever I do.

You're defin. one of the most polite bassists I've ran into. Lol.

You know, carrying all that weight can make a boy/girl a little testy.
