Yogi Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Hello Everyone, I'm Jacob, I have been a lurker for quite a while so thought it was time to join the conversation. I used to play a lot when I was younger, but kind of fell off after I finished at university and started 'real life'. Anyway, I recently picked the bass up again and have really gotten back into the swing of things and am enjoying it, even thinking of trying out for some bands once I get a bit more confident. My gear is pretty random, I play a 5 string LTD F-205 with a pair of EMGs which makes me look like I am going to head out church burning, picked it up from a mate who was pretty much giving it away because he had overspent. I play it through a small Ashdown After 8 combo which is perfect for my needs. I am planning on getting another bass at some point but don't know what, mainly because I don't want a 5 string because I never use the B and the LTD is very uncomfortable to play sat down but am also unsure as to what sound I want haha! Looking forward to chatting with you and contributing where I can! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Blank Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Welcome. I’m relatively new on here and I must say it’s been a gas. Really helpful, really informative and most importantly as reasonable as I’ve known a forum to be. Enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckystrike Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Welcome, and enjoy the hunt for a new toy! One of the things that made me sign up was the consistently balanced opinions on gear within the threads, so hopefully you'll get plenty of help and advice in finding something suitable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ricksterphil Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Welcome, this is a fantastic forum. Keep away from the Basses for Sale section unless you want to end up thinking about selling a kidney to fund something you're GASSING over!
