Dimwit Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 (edited) Hi all, Been playing (in a manner of speaking) bass on & off for years & years, (more off than on) but took it up again a couple of years ago and for some reason, this time it seems to have stuck with me. Been in a couple of bands and managed to get away with it, and am now trying to get a bit better. I'm listening to a lot of old soul & funky 70's disco at the moment, as well as people like Sharon Jones and the Menehan Street Band. Newest thing I've heard lately is the Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds album. I think they're great. Still got the same Encore Precision copy I've had for 25 years. Keep meaning to upgrade but it'll do until I'm in a serious band or have some spare cash (ha!). Also in the market for a (cheap) Hofner Shorty (or similar) as I travel a fair bit with work, so the gear wanted section is my next stop. Not sure I can contribute much as I don't know nothin' but I'll have a go. All the best Edited March 6, 2013 by Dimwit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
