The other day i was at GC and i saw this dude playing a stingray, and man, he was butchering it, by playin it was to hard. AM i the only one that sees this a wrong. So many people today are playing bass with thier fingers, (as do i) and some pople almost yank on the strings. Ok, i can see it when people get into it, but it's so much better to play lightly.
I guess my point is, that if people play lighter, it would sound better, and plus, lower action. I play moderate, and have a string action of around 2mm. And with the lower action, it's so much easier to slap. Plus, if you want, u can overdrive it occasionally by plucking the strings harder, and get a sick sound for added tension.
Ne one see things like i do, or am i going old at 16..
