Hey everyone,

I'm a bassist who got tired of juggling YouTube tabs, a separate metronome app, and random notes just to run a decent practice session. So I built something. It's called BassBench. Here's what it does:

• Songs: link any YouTube video, break it into sections (Intro, Verse, Chorus, Bridge etc.) and play along (with loop, slow down)
• Vibes: metronome presets you name and save, built around the mood or genre you're practicing
• Automatic session and practice tracking with streaks and calendar.

I genuinely want to know if this helps other bassists too and what to adjust and add.

If you want to try it:

Happy to answer anything here.

Bass part originally played by Wilton Felder. The 16th notes have a somewhat swing feel to it, especially in the drums, but are overall more straight than not. Find the complete song on YouTube. The sheet music is available through my website.

I cannot remember the lyrics, song name, or band name... But liked it enough to print out the bass tabs once upon a time. No link...

Notated for rhythm based on my memory of the bass line. The 2nd measure (4 beats of rest) are not pictured. 160-165 bpm.

Thinking early 2000s alt/emo.
