    Derecola is a long time member whose username got lost somehow a few months ago. He has since recreated it, but is starting again from scratch. Since this is an inconvenience to one of our respected members, I have upped his listed post count to 10 so he can get back to where he was before and see everything again.

    Thumbs up

    Our VIP comes through again!!

  5. Default Thanks everybody!

    Thanks for all the tips, tricks, etc. I'm new here, but I've been playing/wanting to learn to play the bass correctly for years. I finally decided I'd do it the right way.

    I always got hung up on the note reading/fretboard stuff, but I'm determined not to let it intimidate me this time. So again, thanks for all of the tools!

    Of course, I've still got 4 posts to go before I'm worthy to view them...

    Good advice that I have read as I am still struggling in this area.

    I found an iPad app that's been extremely useful for learning fret notes... Guitar Trainer by Cat Loaf. It's great for those times when pulling out the bass isn't practical.

    I drew a fretboard on a piece of paper, made several copies, and when not practicing, or just watching TV, will fill the notes in to help learn thier position. As I've gotten better the mistakes/omissions, have become fewer.

    It was a great feeling when I could (finally!) play any fret at random and say the name of the note! The old gray cells feel 20 again! (Well, forty, anyway...)
