Don't be discouraged friend. Every day is a victory. You have done something amazing - you bought an instrument, practiced and learned and now you can make music. That is fantastic. And you are a Dad with 3 kids, good on you.

I read in an old American Guitar Player magazine that many people get discouraged when they can't play the stuff their heroes play. The guy said to set your sights lower and set small targets to beat this let down feeling. He said we just can't squeeze a famous rock stars 30 years of pro experience into a few weeks of our own skills. Just pick a simple song that you love, break it into pieces, learn it no matter what til it's good and then do another. Set yourself a target of say 10 songs fully learned and THEN buy another bass. The Tascam Bass trainer is a great helper too.
I got sick a while back and am in the same boat, have to learn from scratch. Want to play like Rex Brown but it's more like Mrs Brown at the minute!!
Don't give up, a year from now, you'll be rocking with a tight band laughing at all this. We are all in this together. Best of luck mate.

I am fond of Eddie Jackson of Queensryches stuff - Spector/Zon basses.

Anything off of Operation Mindcrime and 'Della Brown' off of Empire.
