Old Chili Peppers, some new if desired\nAnything Funk (real stuff)\nJazz (you'll never be bored)\n\nOh, here's an idea to help cure boredom. Put in something that has an easy overall line to follow. Usually pop stuff or modal jazz is good. For whatever you choose, plug in, and listen for a little while. Don't concern yourself with the "bass line." Just try to listen for a little while. Then, when you're ready, play over the top of whatever the band is already playing. Don't mimic what you hear. Create beyond what you hear. Pretend you are on stage with that group, only the crowd is there to see you, as a soloist. The CD is merely an accompanist. \n\nIt will feel weird at first, especially if you've never tried improvizing before, but try it. Don't worry so much about WHAT notes to play, but rather HOW to play whatever notes you choose. \n\nflame122112@yahoo.com

Find some music by Mike Oldfield.  He is a zydeco/modern jazz composer.  His music is _perfect_ for that.  You can find his music by doing a search for his name.  You might remember "Tubular Bells" from his early days.  It was one of his first big hits.

Try a variety of picks.  Also, practice finger-picking.  And when you practice, spend a lot of time playing along with songs you know and like.  This will make the session more enjoyable as well as challenge you to learn different techniques, rhythms, chord structures, and familiarize yourself with your own abilities and limitations.  This will speed you along faster than practice alone and reward you when you are actually able to play a bass line.\n\nDon't worry about spending money on high-end equipment until you feel you need to invest in it.  Go to a pawn shop, used music store, or classifieds for used bass heads and amps.  You will find some good deals, and many used amps actually sound better than new equipment because it has aged and been played.  New equipment tends to sound "new" and may take time to break in.  Take your bass with you when you try out amps, most places don't mind and actually encourage you to try out different amps.

i doubt you will find a isolated bass line for that song--but if you go to guitar tab universe--you will find the tab for it there or on some other tablature site--tablature is real easy  to read if you haven,t tried it before--anybody can do it----the bass part in that song isn,t very difficult anyhow--good luck!!

Listen to whatever you like. But do not restrict yourself to just these. \n\n"Good music" is whatever you think is good. \n\nYou should try listening to all kinds of stuff.....you never know...you might surprise yourself....

Instrumentals.\n\nCheck out Tosca, Caural, STS9, Quantic, Wax Tailor, DJ Logic, Scorn, etc.  It's great for studying and for creative work.

I get the Cabelas and bass pro catalouge. They have several things for this application. Look online at Cabelas.com or Bassproshops.com for information

schecter makes a good 5 or 6 string, but if you are just starting out 4 string would be much more practical. In that instance, I recommend getting a Fender J bass.

New or Used you could pay anywhere between USD300 - USD6,000\nFor a good bass I would be ok spending up to USD1,500.\n\nLessons vary so much as well - group or private - I spend USD80 for three hours a week.

Bass for its deep and sexy sound. It forms the basis for a great melody which can be a dud depending on its bass line. i know nothing whats so ever bout any type of bass i just know i love the sound of the bass and i also love the sound of the double bass drum for the same reason.

Well it goes up and down the list and depends on just what you're going for.\nPretty much the "old standby" for a good bass is the Fender P-Bass. \nThe biggest thing is that it feels comfortable to play, seriously. You can always change the strings and the pickups. I think Ibanez or Dean would make a great choice for a reasonably priced bass for intermediate levels. But some people prefer the larger feel of a rickenbacker bass.\n\nJackson makes bass guitars comparable to ibanez for playability and for something fairly cheap and still comfortable at a beggining level you could get a Charvel (Made by Jackson). \n\nReally, there's a LOT of companies with a LOT of great choices, just play around and find what feels right. If it's your first, I would try a Charvel bass though. That was the first one I ever picked up and still love them.
