backwater Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 Hi Everyone, Just to introduce myself. I'm Andy, been playing bass on and off for about 12 years in various styles. Currently working with a band as a roadie so don't get out to play bass often! My current rig : 1984 Washburn Bantam - Headless, fretless, bodyless but sounds good 1978 Peavey MkIII Head - sort of works! 1980-ish Peavey 215 cab - cut down to a 1x15 and owned by Simple Minds sometime in the past 2007 Ashdown Superfly Head Cheers Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy[/quote] Cool, you're not human until you've appreciated the folk. I heard some good Christian music not too long ago, I normally stick to Classical or Gospel.

Same bass though maybe not for long (I've loaned it out for the Edinburgh Festival to a friend and he's loaned me his brand new Hohner B2AV 5-string - I can feel the GAS coming on!)
