Well I got a bass for Christmas last year. Its a Squier Precision Bass. It has a 15 Fender Rumble Amp. I play with a pick and sometimes try with my fingers. I like to play Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath songs. I kind of suck a bass tho because I dont play it that often. I only know how read tabs. I have a friend who is really great at guitar and I want to start a band with him but if I do I will need to improve on the bass. Could anyone help me out by giving me tips or anything that could help me learn to play bass with such skill?
