For all of us guiatr players...don't you hate tunning your guitar not standard but to D or something different...I hate when I find a riff there and then re-tune to standard tunning then have to re-tune to D to play it again...or when you find a song you like...damn i am lazy.

Guitars are lazy
-
If you're lazy, get an electronic chromatic guitar tuner. It also helps you get into standard tuning (I mean standard pitch).
-
I play bass so never have that problem MWHA HA HA HA
-
You never drop your E to a D? Do you have a 5- or 6-string bass?
-
5 string, all the tabs I have gotten have been for a 4 string so my 5th string is mainly used for when I am throwing my own stuff into it.
-
Don't some bass tabs drop tuning? If you have a 5-string, you can get around it, but then you have to modify the tabs. Otherwise, it's pretty hard to play things in E-flat, D, D-flat, etc.
-
I dunno most of the punk tabs I have seen I have been able to play fine without retuning. I may have had to change a few tabs because they didnt sound right but I havnt had to retune to another key. I havnt been playing that long as I go the bass on friday and have been teaching myself to play it. Pretty proud of myself since I can already play a few rancid songs and their bass is really fast. I just looked at some bass tabs and a picture of the notes on the fretboard and put two and two together and I know how to read the music and play it. Easiest instrument to lean ever!!!!!! But everyone says its hard to get good at.
-
hey I play bass too.
-
Awsome, if I get stuck I know who to ask for help . Have you heared Rancids bass before? Thats what I hope to oneday be able to achieve, Mat Freeman is awsome.
-
Rancids Bass is unblievable. Mat Freeman rocks. I'm still a beginner in learning how to play the bass but I can play a few songs and make up things. But I love playing the bass and I hope I get better.

Jaco Pastorius, Me'shell Ndegéocello, Victor Wooten, Paul McCartney.

hahahaha I remember that episode, it is for the Christian rock band. Helsman- - I have enough problems playing on one neck, that is asking for double the problems, but if I put on some spandey and some puffy shirts I would be doing a time warp.lol

^^loving Jaco Pastorius, my brother plays bass and introduced me to his stuff, crazy guy he is

You replied to Walken, but are you talking to me? (If you just always reply to the last post, it wrecks the "threaded view" of the thread.)I have a blues duet on the 'Pod with Clapton on guitar and Pastorius on bass...I have the strong urge to join in.
