In the last 2 months I've picked up my bass that I've owned since college(8 yrs ago) and started practicing and learning. I've been working on scales, chords, chord tones, arpeggios, walking base lines. As well as just trying to get my fingers to do what there supposed to do.

Are there any of you out there that play bass, or even guitar? What did you do when you started playing. What did you practice? Are there any tips you would like to share.

I feel like I've gotten into a rut, playing and practicing the same things over and over again. I know it is important to fully know and understand all the fundamentals. What do you have with you when you practice, i.e. metronomes, backing tracks? Do you always practice in the same spot or try different spots for more influences.

I know, its a lot of questions. Basically I'm just looking for tips to further my knowledge and skill. And try to get out of this rut I'm in
