dba 4 strings rman ang bass sa?....what if 6 string na cya pwede na ma guitar?

guitar btaw na ang bass bai..hehehe..ang lahi lng kay ang bass guitar cud play notes lower than what the ordinary guitar cud, m not xur by how many octaves mas lawm xa..naay 4-string, naa sad 5-string (murg sa standard tuning nga E-A-D-G, a lower B s added lyk a 7-string guitar) og kta sab ko og 6-string (kani kay duha ka option ako nabantayn ang pagpuno og string, either add 2 lower notes, or 1 lower, og 1 higher) .. I THINK..hehehe

i think we nid responses here from tru/certified bassists.. i playd d bass 4 a relatively short tym so m not s n depth..

opinion nku sa technique s dat der s none, dpende rajud na sa imung tirada, although slapping (lyk flea sa rhcp) does luk cool pro dli kau versatile.. plucking (d ko xur f dat s d proper term, bsta kanang typical nga playing gud) probably s d best 2 master kay lots of songs r arranged wid dat type of playing. luk at john myung sa dream theater 2 c a master at work.. \m/

[miket07]

plucking? or you mean slapping?

[tingborgy]

plucking i mean wid d fingers (usually thumb, fore og middle finger) picking d strings 1 at a tym..bsta tan-awa na ang usual nga pg tukar sa bass..hehehe

BASS SLAPPING: Larry Graham, Victor Wooten
