Hi all, i've just joined and have been directed to post an introduction.
i'm David, i have been playing bass for 15 years (guitar for 17 and piano for around 25). i am 'classically trained' so to speak.
I played in bands from 2006 through 2008, first in a heavy stoner rock / grunge kind of band (think Sabbath, QOTSA, Zeppelin), then a classic indie rock band (think Stone Roses, Verve, Kula Shaker).
I worked in studios 2008-2011 as an assistant engineer, then began touring as a technician which i really did, all over the world, until coronavirus hit us.
Looking to find a 'normal job' and begin performing again. Got a few auditions coming up and dug my bass out of storage too. i really miss being in a band, and working for one isn't the same.
i play an Epiphone EB-3 (full scale SG bass), and a Cruiser CX-100 which despite it's price tag is, in my opinion, a great bass.
Noise comes from Ampeg SVT heads and an Ashdown 4x10. i still love my Bass POD XT as well.
Looking forward to sharing experiences here.
