Hello everybody, I'm new to this site, I'm just trying to get back into bass playing after a 5 year hiatus.
I live in aberdeenshire, Scotland, I'm 29 and might be 29 for a while I've decided! I currently use a squier copy ive named nasty nick but have ordered myself an Ibanez srx360 after trialling one in a local shop (ordered it online a lot cheaper) it just felt so good compared to nasty nick! I've not got huge hands so the srx suited me better than most models, especially the squiers. I've got a bx1200 and I'm hoping that the srx will sound super sweet through it. I'm considering taking a few lessons to get me going again. If anyone could recommend a tutor in this area it would be much appreciated. I really like bass players like Mani, Andy Rourke and Damon Minchella but I'm into pretty much any kind of music. Anyway that's me.
Happy slappin'

check out Henrik's playing on Dirtyloops videos - he got quite small hands it seems but manages a TRB6 quite nicely :)

you might get berated for preferring a J to a P or vice versa or Tal to Victor or whatever but ive not seen any untoward banter on here over hand size so you should be ok ;)

Oh aye yi need furry boots up here like. Its the 6th of April and we have snow! Again! Don't really mind as I got my new bass yesterday:-) its actually not an srx360 as posted before. The guy I ordered it from phoned to say that it would be a while until they had them in stock and offered me an srx430 instead. I went for it as its supposed to be higher spec but it sounds and feels the same, the only difference being that its white with a black pickgaurd. I'm so so happy with it though. Its a hundred times better than nasty nick. If I'd got one of these years ago I'd probably not stopped playing. A new bass really does get you going doesn't it? I've played more in the last two days than I have all year. Thanks for all the comments peeps.
