HowieBass Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 +1 for Dave's World of Fun Stuff (I'm a subscriber to his channel) and he's a bass player too (he likes his Fenders). I wonder if he knows about Basschat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinnyman Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 [quote name='ern500evo' timestamp='1410510547' post='2550121'] Look up a series of videos on YouTube by John Carruthers, I think they're on Elixir strings channel, he takes you through the basics. After some persuasion from the good folks here on BC I had my first go at it, with the JC video playing on my iPad while I did it, it's very satisfying! Last one I had done professionally was awful, took it to the same guy I've used many times, not sure if he was having an off day because he's usually very good. I didn't have time to check it when I picked it up and as he'd done plenty of stuff for me before, I didn't think there was any need, but when I got it home and played it, it was a buzzing mess. That sort of convinced me I had to learn how to do it and give it a go. [/quote]+1 for the JC videos. Really helpful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
