Hello
Thought I would finally sign up to this forum, I have occasionally glanced at it and have finally got around to being a part of it. Not that I think I will have a lot to contribute!
Little bit about me first, I have recently finished a degree in Music Technology and am in the process of attempting to get a job in the industry. I have been playing bass for about eight years and my gigging experience during this time is, how should i put this.. not as extensive as it should have been.
For most of that time I was part of a Metal band that broke up last year, mostly due to the lack of drive and the non existent gigs! I have however just become part of a new band that is focused more towards Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots and Soundgarden style music but all originals.
Equipment wise i'm currently using a Musicman Stingray through an Ashdown ABM500 with 410 cab for playing with my band. I also have a Peavey Milestone that was my first bass, that i have messed around with a bit and am in the process of making a franken-P-bass out of random parts when i collect enough of them!
