As you continue on your way to becoming a better bass player, there may come a time when you want to reassess the bass you are using. Instead of a low 4 strings, you can begin to look into getting a 5 string bass as a means of becoming more experimental.
But what really does is, obviously, add A new chain of low notes. What about changing your overall sound? Most people do not know, but some bass are really best done with a low free dishes.
In the 1930s, upright bass were the rage. What's more, these were such as violins, violas and cellos – fretless. The use of dishes, like the modern guitar is really a recent phenomenon.

In fact, it can achieve a great effect by injecting the lines with quarter notes up or step down. The more natural and even a fretless glissando also is something to consider.

Just remember that a fretless bass is not for everyone. If you decide to get one, you must commit the necessary time to readjust your playing style.
