About This Site

I love music, especially songs with plenty of bass...the real kind 😜

An accurate meme explaining that bass guitars are real bass

I like to play bass guitar as a hobby. My favorite way to practice is to play songs. I always wished I had a tool that would do a few things to help me practice:

  • List all of the songs I want to practice in 1 place
  • Show notes/tips about how to play each song, including tuning
  • Show tabs, if available
  • Embed videos of covers, live performances, isolated tracks, etc.
  • Allow me to easily adjust the playback rate. YouTube already lets users adjust the playback rate, but I wanted something with fewer clicks
  • Allow me to specify a custom loop so I can repeatedly practice a specific section of a song

BASS'd on that wishlist, I made this site!

The favicon is based on a Flaticon image...but of course, I had to rotate it since I'm left-handed.

I generated the Copy Bass logo using an Iron Maiden-style font from Font Meme, with the “OutlineUltra” effect. In case you couldn't already tell, I'm a big fan of Iron Maiden, especially their bassist Steve Harris.

The color of the logo even uses the maroon color of Steve's favorite futbol team, West Ham United.

Am I a little obsessed with Iron Maiden? ...BASSically, yes.
