Hello my name is lazarus, im 15 turning 16 and ive been teaching myself bass for what will be a year on my next birthday, im still a beginner but i learn fast. I cadn play but im still working on getting better( a lot better). I have one bass she's a bit torn up because she was found by my uncle broken in two before he gave it to me, but she still works fine. I really need to get better because just for fun me and some friends are making a band( its coming along slow) and im supposed to be its er....leader.
