Just recently started fooling around with learning bass techniques. What a trip, never could have imagined it's so damn diversified.
Well, what I stopped to pass on to you guys that are in the same boat as me when it comes to bass playing, you might take a gander at (ActiveMusician.com) There you will find scales and bits and pieces of information about bass playing that should keep you busy for an eternity.
One of the most useful tools for myself is listening and trying to understand what I am hearing played on the radio etc.

Just got an email from Suitcase Sam a Ukulele player. Sam says there are four major types of ukuleles, Soprano, Tenor, Concert and Baritone. The Baritone is tuned exactly like the top four strings of a guitar, D,G,B,E. The other uke's use G,C,E,A. Sam plays a baritone uke and uses a guitar tuner to tune his guitar...
I'll still check with the Hawaiian dudes over the weekend.
Later...
I wonder if the old guys back home were just pullin our leg when they told us the way to tune your uke was "My dog has fleas?"
We have Hawaiian neighbors that jam quite a bit in their garage and patio on weekends. Lot of uke playing going on there. I'll see what they have to say and pass it on to you.
