I hang well. I can improvise. Not enough said. My bread and butter is note for note playing. I can when guitar players say "Yeah I know that one." But then they don't really. Or there a ton of versions of it. I am a cover guy, who can hang with improvising and jamming. It just annoys me. A guitar player says "I know 'Gimme Three Steps'" But they don't hit the licks or something. I learned that note-for-note. I guess bass players have the same rep or something. It could be my note for note learning, but it does annoy me when I play the lick and the band is lost. I am new to this channel. I suppose I might want to start a topic called something like "Sitting in Frustration". Sololei frustration? They think we "just" play bass? It could just be me. Tell me which recording you want to play, or don't. If you don't, don't complain I did not "know" the bass line you wanted. If all of that makes sense. I just "jam" alot, but I find guitarists are so demanding without the discipline if they are not straight pros.

I have played bass, mostly classic rock, blues and motown. I have played in cover / bar bands for over 25 years. My rig is a Steingberber Spirit XT-25 with a Markbass CMD 102P IV 2x10 300-Watt Bass Combo.
