We share similar tastes in basses. I have bought a Vintage which worked well last night. I occasionally get my 80's Charvel with pointy headstock out if i want to rawk out & my Aria is a fretlesss. I left the hair club some years ago. Are you gigging at the moment? [/quote] hi Think I have heard of your band, no not giggin just practising about 5 - 7 songs at the moment, the two bass's sound awesome love the pointy charvels I had been combing ebay for them til i got the vintage. will keep an eye out for your band..cheers...paul

Hi there, paul here from Torquay, I currently play a white aria pro II slb 2 with a pointy headstock, I like to play 80s hair metal and van halen also some of the newer hair metal band songs from finland/sweden. i am a huge fan of melodic death and viking metal especially children of bodom, eternal tears of sorrow,dark tranquility,skyfire,wintersun etc. I like classic rock too if you count bands like deep purple ,rainbow,dio,whitesnake,jovi,GnR. I am currently playig on bass songs by van halen,ratt crazy lixx and winger. my fave bass's usually involve classic charvel bc rich gunslinger type shapes with pointy headstocks reversed if possible. I might get a Vintage v4 reissue as a spare bass soon, my lottery win bass would be a charvel custom shop with tiger stripes or something along those lines. I have a small ashdown tourbus amp for practising in the house and plan to get something more substantial for jamming with others, I use a zoom B2.1u fx and favour dunlop jazz 3 picks have a great day/evening.....Paul
