BassVentura-FretDetective Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 (edited) Greetings rumblers, although I've joined the club immediately to sell some instruments I realise that I haven't introduced myself. How rude. My name's Joel, 22, have been playing since mid-teens, have just come out of playing with a indie-rock-ish uni band, and am now bassing with a Midlands based function band. Much Stevie Wonder n all that. In the beginning...there was a cheap AXL jazz bass copy. 'Merica' was the son of AXL, a weird but lovely thru-neck beasty, which was pretty. Ibanez SRX305 was the son of 'Merica', can't say I loved it Aria IGB-68 was the son of Ibanez, and had low action and was punchy - needs selling Sterling by Musicman SB14 was the son of Aria, shiny and chuggy And finally Warwick Corvette 5 was the son of Sterling, who growls at strangers. A shining star in the east hangs over a Fender US jazz (deluxe?) or Stingray somewhere I hope. Nice to meet y'all (p.s. This is me trying to prove that bass playing can even happen in Gatecrasher club, Brum) [attachment=116912:65716_471132506218_2819327_n.jpeg] Edited August 29, 2012 by BassVentura-FretDetective Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skankdelvar Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Welcome, BV-FD Frankly, I wouldn't worry about puns - that's as witty a screen-name and as charming an intro as I've seen in a long time. Hope you enjoy the forum, m'man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
