Level 42 Digest for Saturday, October 29, 2005

Starting to play the bass, aye? Well mate, you have no idea what the digesters have in store for you. This reminds me of some bloke who had the same desire and without a doubt, the forum was filled with countless bass guitar enthusiasts chipping in for some good ol' Zen.

So mate, first of all.... do you have a bass guitar? Or do you plan to borrow one from a friend? Either way, you'll need one. Now don't go rushing to the store for a hefty Jaydee or Alembic.... or even a Status, which sensei Mark King is currently using. Start off with a simple 4-string axe and that should get you rolling along the way. You might want to get a beginner's guide book to help you with the rudiments and you just might have a go at reading tablatures. The best way to learn to play musical instruments is always from a music teacher or an experienced player, but it doesn't really matter if you're planning to do the Jedi thingy and do it yourself. I did, at least on the bass guitar. I'm sure that there'll be other bass gurus itching to give you ample advice on starting your bass guitar journey. Damn I'm already itching :) Are you going to play like MK in three months? Dude, you'll never know. As an encouragement, you just might develop your own unique style and cut your own album. Anyways, just stay tuned for more expert advices (and believe me, there will be).... and welcome to the world of bass players.
