Maxcat Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Hi Folks. Stumbled across your site looking for EUB reviews. Ive been playing bass in a variety of bands since my dad bought me a 6 string acoustic for my 13th birthday which I immediately took the top 2 strings off and found exactly what I was looking for. Unfortunately Im now 45 so I guess I should be a lot better than I am. Love all sorts of music with a special place in my heart for Blues rock, soul and classic rock. Lapsed from playing live for about 6 years, but it is now time to bet back into it. Based in Reading Berks via Ayrshire Scotland. Looking forward to spending some time in the site picking your brains and feeling like a muso again. Once again Hi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge Hands Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 (edited) Welcome. I've got to get the missus a top like the one in your avatar. I have a feeling she'd be the only one prepared to wear one at our gigs, and even that would hard to persuade... She'd probably scribble it out and put "singer". Good looking b*st*rd!

I've only been a member for a few days myself (site recommended by iamthewalrus, another Reading member), and already I'm discovering all sorts of things. I'm based just outside Reading, by the way, and my band plays quite often in the area. Get yourself in a band-when I did, I realised it was the best favour I could have done myself! Like everyone else, I love the top in your photo! My wife is already asking where she can get one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
