Wow, I've been lurking in the shadows a bit since i stumbled upon BC a couple of weeks ago. I've been reading up on alot of stuff: tunings, strings, pickups, fretboard knowledge, fingering techniques etc. but have just finished reading through this thread and I have to say I'm inspired! Purchased my first bass on the Bay 3 days ago and it's being delivered on monday... I can't wait to get started!
Now all i need is a half-decent avatar...
