ok im pretty decent at bass adn by that i mean i can easily play guns n roses bass parts, but im learning to fingerpick and im ok but you knwo hwo your sopposed to alternate between your 2 fingers? well without even trying its just teh way i would naturaly do it i want to use my middle finger to pluck the higher frets and my index to pluck the lower and last frets and notes id play in a bass line, like if it was the E string and the frets were 8 7 6 5 id play middle finger,index finger, middle finger, index finger, and if it was 5 6 7 8 in that order i would play it index, middle, index , middle, and if it was like, 7 6 4 i always pluck middle, middle, index so i always want to end the highest note with my middle and the lowest wiht my index finger, is that a problum should i work really hard on just alternating and finger cordination or should i just roll with it and play that wiht since its what i want to naturaly do?
I think you should play the way it naturally comes to you. It sounds too complicated to play like that. I've never heard of anyone playing that way, and there must be a reason why. Just play however you want too, but I would suggest NOT doing the complex switch. Then again, I stopped playing bass awhile back, so maybe I'm not the best judge...
