Playing this song on on bass guitar and getting a tone I liked was a fun challenge 🍒 and I ultimately went with a clean tone to let my beautiful bass sing. Thank you @marilia ⭒ for inspiring this one! Bass guitar is an amazing instrument because subtle changes in your sound can totally transform a song. 🎸 Even though it can be frustrating, as a bass player, I love finding the most musical bass tones. It inspires me to keep covering new songs, and pushing the boundaries of what I can do. ✨ What song should I try adding bass to next? #bassguitar #bass #basstok
Playing the bass guitar as a woman makes me feel so powerful. 🚨 The way the bass guitar strings shake some strength to pull. The finesse to get the tone I want, to make the bass guitar sound like my bass guitar. 🎸 I’ll spend hours just repeating the same five notes over and over and until they feel right under my fingers. I can feel the bass guitar in my heartbeat. ❤️ The type of power I feel from the bass is a grounded power. A feminine power. #bassgutiar #bass #basstok

Tips for beginner bass players! 🎸🌸 These are a few things that were extremely helpful when I first started: 1️⃣ Take your hand and make a pinching motion, this is how you’ll move through the string ➡️➡️➡️ 2️⃣ Alternate fingers to develop speed. ⚡️ Now just set down your hand. 3️⃣ People don’t understand 🗣️ a lot of beginner bass guitar players think you have to put your thumb on your pickup. I prefer to combine that with putting my on different strings depending on what feels best for the song I’m playing. 4️⃣ For my beginner bass students, I suggest you start with your thumb on the pickup because that’ll get you really far ✅ 5️⃣ As for your fingers 🚫 don’t think about plucking the string in terms of pulling up or pushing down. 6️⃣ Instead, pinch your fingers through the string toward your thumb 💕 7️⃣ Alternate fingers, start slowly, making each sure each note sounds beautiful ✨ 8️⃣ Gradually increase your speed—as you are able to make each note ring clearly. 9️⃣ Remember to breathe and smile when u stumble, and keep jamming on bass guitar. You’ll only improve as time goes on💕 🔟 Need more bass guitar in your life? ⭐️🍒 Tap my pinned video if you want to become a bass baddie! ⬅️ 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸 Thanks @emma who ? for giving me the idea to make this tutorial :) love ya!! 💕💕💕 #bassguitar #bassguitarlessons #bassguitarist #basslessons #firstbasslesson #beginners
Have you ever wanted to play bass? I genuinely want your answer. Because here’s my secret: I was a self-taught bass guitar player, too, and you won’t believe how often I wanted to quit >>> As a beginner, it felt like so much was wrong with my bass playing! I’m always talking about persistence and resilience—getting back up when you’re knocked down—but some days as a beginner, I got so knocked down, it was difficult to get back up. 💔 The painful reality is I was unmotivated because I didn’t have the guidance I needed. If you want to play bass guitar, you deserve to play bass guitar! 🎸🎸🎸 I don’t want you to give up. That’s why I started Bass Lessons with April For people who want to learn to play bass guitar FAST in a straight-forward, fun, and motivating way. The bass guitar has given me everything, and the bass guitar can give you everything too. I can’t wait for your bass adventure to start 💞 Love ya, April
I’m playing a show tonight and I know know I wanna use this green bass, but I don't know what to wear! 😱 So let’s get ready. Either I go matchy-matchy or I go go complementary. 💗💚 I want a little bit more glitter, so I’m adding a belt and lots and lots of rings. For shoes, do I wanna be comfy, or do I wear heels? 🌱🎸 I want to start doing more of these so let me know in the comments: What do you think? Any outfits you wanna see? #grwm #getreadywithme #vintage #vintagevibes #scoobydoo #pennylane #jimihendrix
