Hey, I'm from the Leeds area and am new to bass chat. I recently left my metal band in order to join a folk/contemporary acoustic band. It was a big decision for me, I'm only 18 years old and have been in the band ever since I left school. I'm a music technology student and multi-instrumentalist but my love is the bass guitar, I play a 5 string Shine bass. I will keep you all updated on how the new band comes along cheers guys.
