See if you can find 'Chord Basics' by Jonas Hellborg - it's a great little book to throw in your case that features tons of chords that you can refer to at rehearsals etc. Also check out this great resource [url="http://www.davegrossman.net/guitar-and-bass/"]http://www.davegrossman.net/guitar-and-bass/[/url] for tons of information about scales and chords on Bass too![/quote] Brilliant mate thats great Now all i need is a 5 string or 6 then thats me sorted. A 5 string jazz probably.

    [quote name='dood' post='1011390' date='Nov 3 2010, 09:39 PM']Ahhhh I LOVE chords on bass! There's something about the tone of them which is so pleasing to the ear! Especially with nice new strings. I use 6 & 7 string basses B_G; the extra strings allow me (like many others) to play bass lines and chords at the same time. As you say, nothing new - but iI find that anyone who says that you *shouldn't* do something on an instrument is close minded and blinkered! I'll play drums on my bass if I damn well want to! he he (as long as I think it sounds good ha!)[/quote] Personally i would love to learn more advanced chords on a bass as i love the sound too. The ones i do sometimes are just pretty much octaves. Very amateur as i am

    Yeh, ive had a few comments from other 'musicians' saying chords ARE NOT for bass. They are only meant for acoustics, electrics etc

    Does anyone ever use improv chords on a bass eg G- 9 D- 9 A- 7 E- 0 To me is an E chord on a bass which i sometimes use strummed with my fingers sometimes thumb for a smoother sound. I know this is probably not new and might already be a thread about this but does anyone else do chords on bass?

    [quote name='mcnach' post='1008659' date='Nov 1 2010, 03:59 PM']I met Alex on Saturday and we exchanged my Jim Deacon P/J for his Squier Bronco Batdtz Maru bass. Very nice to meet you and chat for a while despite the lack of caffeine-dealing establishments open for business at merely 6pm. But... what am I thinking, that was Glasgow! If there's no alcohol in a beverage, then they're not interested! Just kidding, I love Glasgow. Very pleased with the deal, and happy to meet Alex in person. [/quote] Thank you Jose and next time ill bring a nice flask of hot coffee without alcohol Alex

    [quote name='karlfer' post='1006433' date='Oct 30 2010, 04:35 PM']I know how good it is. I just think the market is showing signs of a struggle. I have just sold a pretty much perfect Aguilar 2x10. A year ago it would have been about £400 (new £600) I was lucky to get £220 for it. A stunning Lakland Darryll Jones in white finished on FEEBay last week, £600 start, no bids placed. A year ago that would have gone for about £800. There are dozens of examples around, so best just to hold your nerve and keep at it if you want rid. If not, hold onto it until the market improves. Best of luck, Karl.[/quote] Thanks mate, but ive got a good feeling in my bladder that someone will bite sometime within the next 12 years Takes skill
