Introduce Yourself! (2023)

Welcome to the forum! This is a great place to make your first post and introduce yourself to the BassBuzz forum family. You probably already sorta know me , but here are some facts about me to get the thread started: Started playing bass at age 13, but was banging on pots and pans for many years before that No those aren’t miniature basses I’m playing in the videos, I’m just 6’7"

Post your covers! 2023

Hi all This is the 2023 “Post your covers !” thread, created because the initial post is reaching the 10000 posts (and it causes technical problems). I will most probably create one new post per year, in the future. So, for the newcomers, here is the concept : I thought it would be a good idea to share our bass covers here. I hope it may encourage some of you to get into recording, finding tabs by ears (or on the internet), playing the songs that really make your heart vibrate. All …

Post your original songs/compositions!

everything is in the title. I guess I have to start and I’ll post one thing that’s more a test than anything else. this thing started as a test of a hardware drumbox I have (Digitech Trio) and I started layering some guitar and bass tracks to see if it would work. of course I play all the instruments. well it’s more a post-desert-rock mess than a real song but here it is : some Fender Precision Bass involved some modded BDI21 involved as well …

"Share some good music" Friday

Maybe we could share some great music every Friday!? Start a tradition!? Here is some amazing latin jazz with Michel Camilo on the piano, the inimitable Anthony Jackson on his 6-string monster and Horacio Hernandez, who sounds like a guy replacing a whole percussion section. This is dense stuff, for sure, but also just amazing playing. I saw a concert with them once, and it was the only concert I remember where the tuner had to come in during intermission to get the grand piano back in s…

Beginner to Badass Reviews?

Hey BassBuzz family, for those of you who completed Beginner to Badass, what did you (honestly) think of the course? It would help people who are interested in the course to have some legit reviews all in one place. And I’m always ready to take constructive feedback, so we’re all as Badass as possible. Thank you! And please also post in BadAss BassBuzz Alumni so we can congratulate you for finishing the course! EDIT: Please help me keep this thread easy to navigate by only…

Show Us Your Basses (Part 1)

What would a bass forum be without us showing each other our toys? I’ll go first. First, my main bass, the trusty Peavey Cirrus 4 string I’ve had for probably a decade. [cirrus4] I recently acquired its evil twin, a Cirrus 5 from the same era. [cirrus5] Another recent addition I haven’t quite fallen in love with yet is my MIM Fender Jazz 5 string. It sounds nice and plays well, I don’t know what I don’t like about it… we just haven’t created a special bond yet. [jbass5] Okay, I LOVE th…

GAS - Gear Acquisition Syndrome

even i can’t really argue with that. i mean it’s not terrible. it’s kind of like the panty hose color “nude”. my wife always says, who exactly is this color?

Bass Porn

Love that one. I was going to pull the trigger on that one but it was not available at the time. I love the Tort binding and inlays. Well, I’m hoping my bass will be here next week, care to guess what it is? I dropped several hints already so it’s almost like cheating, lol. Paging @T_dub , @MikeC , @Reasonably_Happy lol. Oh @AnotherJosh. Y’all should have pretty good guess.

A little music related fun

We’re all a nice bunch in here so I thought a little humour might be in order. Nothing political or too risque, just some music puns etc. to break up the chugging. (I’m sure @JoshFossgreen or one of his minions can sort it if it’s not in keeping with the forum) To kick it off I wanted to share this cosplay pair who must’ve put in a huge amount of money, and all for nothing.

Show us your Practice Space

We’ve got “Show us your Basses”, “Show us your Amps”, and “Show us your Straps”. How about, “Show us your Practice Space”? Here’s mine: I recently got evicted from my little corner of the family room because I have acquired too much gear and am taking up too much space. So here’s my new setup in what used to be the dining room. [Bass Room]

The Official BassBuzz Food Thread

I know I’m not the only one who appreciates pictures of food. Post your meal pictures here. The only criteria is that you post something you ate!

Speaking of pet pictures

I was looking for something on my computer and came across this photo of my Lucy. I had just received a set of motorcycle tires that I had ordered, and she leaped into them and posed for a photo. Too cute not to share. [Lucy in tires]
