Welcome aboard! 

Very nIce indeed.

How about confusing yourself further by stringing E-C?

... can you do that? I suppose you can, but it not being top B will mess with my head even more than having a B string where a low E should be whe world makes sense.

Sshhh! You don’t want the rile up the locals and have them digging out their flaming torches and pitchforks.

 

 

Head over to Guitar Chat for skinny stringed talk, there’s a few of us there too, but keep it on the QT. 😉

Chastened and told  Bass all the way and I'm already reading posts and starting to get the measure of my own ignorance about things I'd love to know.

That’s how we lure you in, wait until we fire up the pot with aromatic vegetables for ‘Ex-guitarist Stew’. What, we don’t do that anymore? Look, just because I peed in the broth when you tried to poach me is no reason not to try again with others who might not ‘leak’ as much; no fair! 😩

Ex guitarist? Errr... I didn't go that far! The reason I have a 5 strings bass is because I think I might be somewhere in betweeen 4 and 6. Bi-stringual, if you need to stick a label on me (flounces off and picks up his ukulele to the horror & confusion of all.)

Oh, go on then....

Must admit, the low B really messes with my head after so many years with a low E.

I also must admit, what a nice welcome people get around here!

Thanks a lot!

Cheers!

Just wanted to say hi. Been playing the squealy 6 strings for decades but fairly recently the bass. I'm beginning to realise just how much fun it is and how much there is to know.
