Good bass guitar tutorials

[Swiss Matthias]

I should play my bass more. I definitely like playing it more than guitar, but it hurts my left hand after about 15 minutes because I'm not used to pushing down so hard on the strings. I don't have that problem with guitar. I have a creativity problem with guitar.

So you need to find online tutorials for guitar .

I find that my Yamaha BB and my Squier short scale don't really need a lot of left-hand pressure. My kit J-bass needs a bit but the neck is also a lot chunkier. I gave up trying to muscle through heavy gauges - it's just not worth it even though I have strong hands.

I started with a Sandberg bass for some years, now I own and love my Fender Roscoe Beck V modell. But yes, they're quite chunky!
Do you play with pick mostly, then? I more or less never play with a pick, so I can't even do it properly.

I mainly play with fingers (teeheehee) but will bring out a pick sometimes when it's called for. Being a (bad) guitarist a pick isn't really an issue...

I guess just some kind of mix between inspiration and knowledge in order to make myself practice a bit again.

How about one lesson per month on bass and piano? Since you're busy with other stuff already, that might be enough input to keep you going.

I just dont think melodically. I have scale, chord, and songbooks for guitar. When I pick up a guitar however, I'm still thinking like a drummer. So 3 or 4 note rhythms that would sound better on a bass anyhow.
