Silvia Bluejay Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Welcome AJ! Switching from guitar to The Mother Of All Stringed Instruments is a good move Good gear too. Next, you'll find you want a 5-stringer of some sort Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassTractor Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Hi Aj, Welcome to BC! Switching to bass was a great move indeed. Me, I switched from keyboards after 45 years, and only wonder why ever I didn't switch earlier. Enjoy the ride! bert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdwardHimself Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 (edited) Sounds good. Try not to give up on the guitar though, there is no reason you can't play both! I think it is normal to get sick of the guitar and want to play bass or whatever, I do that all the time. If you want a 5 string, I would reccomend looking at a Peavey BXP bass such as a cirrus or grind. Great basses, great value.
