How Do You Play Bass?
 

I dont play Bass, but I think it's a cool instrument... Anyways, What do you play with and why?


Well the poll ****ed up so yeah:

Fingers

Pick

or Both

Pick most of the time. Fingers occasionally. I just like the sound of the pick better, and I feel like I have a more consistant rhythm, tone, and overall sound. Prolly just haven't praticed the fingers enough though. I'm sticking with the pick!

Fingers mostly. I use a pick rarely. For some reason I just can't play as well with pick.

Me too.
That's how I play acoustic most of the time as well.

fingers mostly but thats just cos thats the way ive been taught i think

Man, am I the only person on here that plays with a pick?

i dunno i play with a pick sometimes.... but i think just cos i play bass at school in a big band thats why i mostly play with fingers... i play a lot of stuff at home with a pick...

depends on what im playing. when i play with my band which is rarely seeing as im not the bassist, i play with a pick because it sounds more powerful. when we are just having a jam session i usually play with the fingers. so i guess you would say both

More agility with fingers in my opinion.

do you guys slap a lot?
