Hi all
I've been playing electric bass for a long time and like plenty of others, I'm looking at a Stagg as a transition to playing DB. I guess what I'm trying to figure out is whether starting on a EUB will take me in the direction that I want to go, or will I learn 'bad EUB habits' that may make the transition to DB more difficult?
My situation is that I really can't afford to spend the 1500+ euro (I'm in Ireland) that it'll cost for a decent starter DB/strings/bag/setup/pickup at the moment, but I'm saving up slowly...In the meantime, I play in a mainly percussive Afro-Cuban band and the Stagg would enable me to get going right away.
If any players and/or teachers have any thoughts on the above I'd love to hear from you,
Cheers
