String Maintenance - Do It!
I cannot emphasize enough the importance of cleaning your bass after you play.With all the oils from your fingers and sweat you are sure to kill the life of your strings.
A simple rag will go a long way to extend the life of your bass strings.

The New Zoom H2 - One Killer Digital Recorder
