      No. The strings that came with it are okay. Bass strings last a long time. New strings will be brighter.

      The Squier bass is priced on the low side and is pretty good for a beginner bass: czcams.com/video/jc7fgiRM6TU/video.html Look into those. If you have a music store by you they might even carry them. It's best to try something in person rather than just buy something on line this way you can get a feel for it. Depending on how old you are and how big your hands are, you might want to try a short scale bass. Here are a few you can check out: czcams.com/video/l7twVE1iSko/video.htmlsi=bmaUx8ctUaFFuiTl czcams.com/video/8OltLr9VGRc/video.htmlsi=kOzVUSbMoh36q7Xi Good luck!

    What a great lesson - Thanks for taking the time Steve - one part I am missing , could you help and sorry if it’s obvious to some - with the chords eg.,A minor how do you get A C E , G major = G B D . Thanks again 🎸

    • @stevekonbass
      @stevekonbass Před 2 dny

      By taking the root, third, and fifth. So we're playing in C major... C D E F G A B C. The first chord is C major (C-root E-third G-fifth). The second chord is D minor (D-root F-third A-fifth). The third chord is E minor (E-root G-third B-fifth) and so on. The difference in what makes a chord major or minor is the third. A major third would be 4 half steps. A minor third would be 3 half steps.

    Thanks. Great lesson. I would love to see a follow up lesson taking this a bit further. Usually I can follow this lesson but struggle when I try to count the beats in actual songs where the notes aren't regularly spaced. I end up losing the count. Perhaps some exercises where the note lengths change while we keep the count on some simple bass lines/progressions. I think this is a major stumbling block for me.

      It's funny you should say that because I was going to give examples in this lesson on how to count out bass lines to certain songs. I decided against it because I thought it best to keep this one fairly simple. Maybe I'll do a follow up. The trick to counting out basslines is to slow it down until you get it, then speed it up to the tempo of the song.

    ok, here is a triplet question: should I start each triplet with the index finger or alternate as it comes: 1 (index)-trip (middle) let (index), 2 (middle) trip (index) let (middle)? I do hear a difference if I start with the index each triplet but it is easier just alternate as it comes. So....?

    Crazy question. I already own the Rumble 500 combo stacked on 2x10 cabinet . There is this guy selling a Fender Bassman 500 watts . At an amazing price !!! I’m really considering. But if I were to use a Fender Bassman head on top of my Rumble 500 combo , with an additional 2x10 cabinet , would it work ??? I like the idea of having better access to the controls . Not sure if this would even work . I guess my goal would be : Plug my bass into the Bassman head , while still using the 500 combo and the additional 2x10 cabinet . I wish this guy that is selling his Bassman would ship it to me first before I buy it . I want to know if it’s even possible to do before I commit .

    • @stevekonbass
      @stevekonbass Před 6 dny

      No, not like you described. You'd have to plug your bass into a direct box with 2 outputs and plug 1 into the Rumble 500 combo and the other into the Bassman head attached to the 2x10 cabinet.

    Hello again. The inputs confuse me slightly. I have a drum machine with stereo outputs, which I've connected to inputs 15 and 16. It doesn't sound very stereo though, as drum machine is set up with fades on left and right drums, but I can't hear this anymore when listening through R16. Oddly, instructions say, when connecting a device with stereo outputs, 'be sure to connect left output Jack to an odd number input, and right output Jack to an even number input'... Why would that make a difference? Cheers

    • @stevekonbass
      @stevekonbass Před 7 dny

      If it doesn't sound stereo, make sure track 15 is panned all the way left, and track 16 is panned all the way right. If it still doesn't sound stereo, see how the drums are panned in the drum machine. You can pan the hi-hat a little more left and the ride a little more right and pan the toms left to right.
