What is the best way to establish a test for heavy metals - Where do I put the amps?
Also, some tips to concerts? We do not have monitors, so what is the best configuration of guitar amplifiers, voice amplifier, amplifier bass and drums, so you can hear each other enough to stay together? Let's do some outdoor concerts and indoor concerts for some 100-200 people. Our amplifiers are tube amps and the volume is not a problem. We play mostly Metallica covers.
It is difficult, without monitors, but I'd say your best option is to all the amplifiers and drum set behind the band. In this way the sound has to pass first time. Try to place their amps so if the sound came in straight line of each amplifier, all lines that intersect at some point in the middle of where we are all standing. That way you can hear all the instruments, but the bass is a little closer to your amplifier to listen to himself a little more, guitarist to be close to your amplifier, etc. This is not a situation perfect, but it's hard to get much better without monitors.
wanted to know if u can play technical Pluckin acoustic bass slap me coz I have never tried fear that the chains can be started or Sumthin.
You can play slap on acoustic. Do not worry about the bass strings are hard chains. The only problem is likely to have decent sound.

How should the general configuration of Bridge in the lowest possible?
Based on the information you provided, there is no way to answer this question. Without knowing exactly how low he is talking, what strings you use, and what kind of music you play, it's impossible to say. Him I suggest he seeks under the websites that have forums and have your question, this time with details that I mentioned earlier.

How to Setup a Fender Bass : How to Adjust Bridge Saddle on a Bass Guitar
Posted by relapse on 21st January 2008 in Kids Bass Amps
How can I improve my game under skills / techniques / base foundations, etc?!?
I decided to take the low of around 6-7 months. never played before. I've been playing guitar for over 6 years, but rarely play. rather than signing up for a class of low, what are the practices good or tips to help me help myself. Ive been playing here of my favorite songs and such, but I doubt they do much, apart from other copies. Ive got a Fender Jazz fretless. i didn't know at the time of purchase, but I hear its much harder to play fretless? any help is greatly appreciated.
If you have been playing guitar for a while and have a background in theory, then you have a head start. Remember that low is a totally different instrument, not just a guitar with 2 strings removed. Bass is the connection between the percussion instruments (right hand) and the instruments of tones (left). Some things to work on: 1. MAD Develop a sense of time by using a metronome with the sound off, start playing and look away then look back. 2. Learn the value of space or leaving the notes out. For example: playing notes 16, at a comfortable pace and practice, leaving out the first note and then the second then the third ... within of a measure. 3. If you've played guitar chords you are certainly used to playing "forms". That is, laying his fingers on the neck. As a bassist, need to know the structure of a chord and every note in the chord. Playing different root adds a lot of texture to selected correctly. 4. Learn your scales (bigger, all minors, and as many ways as possible). The practice as far up the neck as you can. That is, do not stop in footnote 8 of the scale. Fretless is more difficult than with concern. Why? A note is created when "change" the distance between the bridge and fingers. That is, the above in the neck to be less than string to vibrate faster and vibrates, creating a higher note. Frets create a certain "mechanical" distance thus making the note continued. In a fretless instrument, simply rolled his finger can change the height of what you're playing. Position of fretless players fingers practice, known as intonation, for the years to make this as accurate as possible. I would suggest switching to a little uneasy unless a reason or burning desire for the distinctive sound of a fretless is. ActiveBass is an awesome site for all kinds of things, especially on the scales and chords. Adam Nitti is a great teacher and has some useful online lessons.
