Toffeexbassist Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 Hey, my names Ash. Let me tell you a bit about myself I'm 15. Live in birkenhead I've been playing bass since April 2006 so not very long Most of the people I've met either call me a natural or assume i've been playing for several years so i think i'm quite good (being very un-modest there ) I currently have 2 Bass's (soon to be 3) A Ray Pierce 19 Fret. A Stonewood 24 Fret. My practice amp is a Drive 20 Watt My Gigging amp is an Ashdown 350 Watt My playing styles are a cross between Metal and funk (think RATM meet RHCP). It produces some wierd (not always nice) sounds, however it brings a sense of individualism to my playing. I do, however enjoy music in general, and would be perfectly happy playing in a Jazz group. I was in a band from December '06 till July '07 but sadly had to quit since i moved over to birkenhead. I'm hoping to set up a band around here too. I've only ever done 2 gigs, so i guess that leaves me a little inexperienced. My other main instruments (in order of skill) are Singing. Electric Guitar. Keyboard. Double bass. Euphonium. Tabla (indian drums). According to peers, I'm quite fast + Accurate but i miss flowing between notes, if anyone would kindly provide exercises I could to to help that. dont hesitate. Any more questions I will be more than happy to answer. And for those wondering, I spilt toffee yogurt on the very first bass i picked up, which earned me the nickname "Toffee" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
