Magazines

[robodog]

Does anyone know of any good bass magazines in the UK. I only know of Bass Guitar magazine and it doesn't have anything to learn or backing tracks to play along to. I know in America there is Bass Player which is aparently quite good. Anything similar over here??

Personally i think it is, the articles are more in depth and often more relevant to my playing IMO

BP has a lot more helpful articles than bass guitar. LIke there has been this on going section about this luthier fixing this old Fender. He explained and showed(with pictures) how the adjust the neck, bridge, clean it, and sand down the neck to reduce an up bow.

My point exactly, that'll be a useful reference if i ever need to do any setups myself...

^ they also have a retro review, they find an old vintage bass and do a review... some are pretty neat... with in the first few pages they've got some of the newest gear and what not...
