@DoomsdaysCW Ohhh I love the Cure!
The bass line in lovecats... the fragility of Close to me...
I would pitch it for my band but I don't really see our lead singer doing it. She's more of a Norah Jones kind of woman. đ@hpod16 And some Cure songs sound wicked good with a female lead. Just saying... I've heard some brilliant covers!

My #1 lilac thing: my bass guitar!If you know any cool bass players on Mastodon, point me their way!
I'm new here, and I also want to find my hobbies here!If you play another instrument, also come say hi in the comments!
@hpod16 I hate to say it, but I'm a bassist and might be cool?

@hpod16 Iâm only a hobbiest bassist that got started way too late (a year ago) after my eldest daughter picked up guitar (and rapidly soared to heights I will never reach).
This is Tiffany. A cheap-as-hell Peavey Milestone III that I loveâŚanother sign I am destined for the low end đ¤Ł.
Thanks already to everyone who provided some great follows. I am always interested in what people who know what theyâre doing are doing. đ¸@DarwinLovesBitcoin I also started a year ago! Just a hobby bassist myself too. My day job is social media manager. đ

@hpod16 One of the most divine instruments - the four-string! đ¤đť
@oliver nothing beats that deep deep sounds. Every time I amp up and hit the open E string, my heart melts

@paulh my apartment is too small for me to buy any more instruments, especially a double bass. (I'm looking for a bigger apartment) đ
@hpod16@eupolicy.social @paulh@metalhead.club there's always these skinny ones like my Marshmallow Bass (an NS Design WAV Bass )

@hpod16 I played drums for over a decade when I was younger. Still can hear primarily drums in songs too and know where they're hitting/timing, lol.
@strayadult
learning instruments (again) as an adult changed how I listened to music. And the bass was a revelation, for sure.
PS: love that your profile pic is purple, imma follow that. more purple in my timeline pls. đ -

@hpod16 welcome! Sax player here. Tried bass sax once, but low Bb would kill me in 3 seconds so I hoard smaller versions now.

@hpod16 Oh yeah - and seeing what people like Lemmy or Steve Harris did with the thing fortified my faith in the four-string-beast despite missing talent đ

Bass newbie reporting in! I picked it up because my kid plays electric guitar.

@hpod16 I usually play long-scale basses, but I found out, that playing a Rickenbacker body shape feels much more comfortable for me, than a Fender body shape. I'm also a small person with small hands and short fingers.
But for some time now, I've been toying with the idea of switching to a short-scale. And playing a short-scale is so damn easy. My fingers just fly over the strings :-)
@sAshA8H so why not make your life easy?
What I failed to mention, my first bass was also FRETLESS. I really didn't know what I was buying, and I made my life a lot harder than it needed to be. Switching to a short-scale has been đ đĽ -
1974 Ovation Magnum bass in its case on the floor of the band practice room. I have it strung B-E-A-D so it gets real low and probably stimulates vibe glands or something.
Long ago, a friend told me it was ugly. I was genuinely offended.
@clonedhuman your friend was wrong, that's a beautiful instrument. Love the warm wood!
Also on the tuning, how low can we go? -

@hpod16 hii, I'm playing bass, too, but I'm not posting about it here. Maybe I should change that đ¤
@agender_catling maybe you should! I did not expect this much reaction, but then again... the bass is objectively the coolest instrument, and lilac is the best colour, so... đ

@hpod16 @mooseandriosmom Iâm a synthesizer guy but I also have a Chapman Stick. Does that count?
@selgart @mooseandriosmom I have never seen one of these before! How many strings are on that thing? how does it sound?

I've got a Fender Deluxe P-Bass and an Ibanez acoustic bass.
