Hi all — Carlos
Bass is strictly a hobby for me — no bands, no recording goals, no career angle. I’ve been playing 15+ years, but mostly on and off, pretty basic for a long time… until my own kid started playing guitar and I decided I’d better up my game so I don’t embarrass her 😄
I’m into the rabbit holes: tone, feel, ergonomics, and building/modding instruments purely for personal satisfaction. I’ve attached a photo of sume of my current lineup (I have also an spector NS 5 multiscale that I hardly use) — a small herd of 4/5 strings with a strong bias toward headless and multiscale ideas. Musically I lean rock/alt/metal, and I’m always chasing that balance between clarity, punch, and comfort under the hands.
Looking forward to learning from everyone here — and if anyone wants to nerd out on setups, strings, pickups, or weird gear choices, I’m in.
