I can't play sheet on bass, just tabs.

That's the reality of most bass players. I'm just strange, because I learnt upright first.

My friend is fucking awesome at bass, but she can't read music. I'm jealous.

I probably need to practice playing sheet again. I probably need to start practicing the guitar again. Devastated.

Well, it starts to get boring. I'd like to learn a Jazz scale or two. :/

Call me a traditionalist, but I'd take a snakeskin Gunslinger over those.

I'd prefer a bass. If I were to get a special custom guitar, it would look like...

A thumbs up, mayhaps? I'd like a lightning bolt if it had to exist already.

I'll take an old fashioned Fender any day. Smile

Scales are pretty easy. You just remember how many sharps/flast in each one then play it. For example; A major - 3 sharps. Start at A, play every note normal except for F, C and G. At least, that's how I do all my scales (I think it's cheating).
And Danyo? Jazz scales = not fun. Especially when you don't know them and you have to improvise in jazz band. Devastated.
