Metronome might help you to solve the problem, and by the way: very nice blog about guitar lessons, will use it too!Thanks

I would recommend harmonix black finger compressor!

Congrats! This is a very nice bass! :D Enjoy!

I use 3 ring binder. I usually transcribe all songs into Guitar Pro so they look similar. Works well for me. :)

I regret I have postponed learning guitar until so late...
