I'm older than you... 

Good luck with the practice! Have as much fun with it as you can manage. 

Thanks, I'll look into that. We're trying not to spend to much on setting up, but it makes life so much easier if you've got the right gear! ;-)

Thanks, I've got a peavy wedge foldback that I used to take with me to open mics, but it weighs a ton.

Thanks guys! We're still at the open mic level (apart from the occasional foray into singer songwriter feature nights). We're hoping to ramp it up a bit over the next year or two. We're a bit old for dreams of fame and fortune, but there's still a lot of fun to be had. :-)

Hi there, I'm a beginner bass player in a duo. We do all originals. We're based in Bristol, UK. I have a fabulous 5 String Bass Collection Bass, a Santa Ana 4 String Acoustic and a generic 4 String Electric. I find the acoustic frustratingly quiet. I'm going to have to try using a pick with it.
