AM1 Posted January 13, 2009 Author Share Posted January 13, 2009 [quote name='Happy Jack' post='379524' date='Jan 13 2009, 07:21 PM']You joined BassChat on 6th December and you have been playing bass [i]for around a month[/i]. Does that mean your first step towards learning to play bass was to join BassChat?[/quote] No. It would be somewhat unrealistic to expect to learn to play an instrument from scratch, using only an internet forum. [quote name='Happy Jack' post='379524' date='Jan 13 2009, 07:21 PM']The word "beginner" has different meanings to different people. I picked up a bass for the first time just over three years ago, but I still consider myself a "beginner" and that's not false modesty. Your needs in a Beginner's Forum would be quite different from mine.[/quote] It is therefore obvious that player development is something that the forum needs to expand upon, both for absolute beginners and others.

Bah, can't get the staff Let's talk about Roland V-Bass instead then! My back is already caving in with piling more and more gear on it, so is this in-ear monitoring stuff any good?

Bass-ic Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 (edited) [quote name='ped' post='379493' date='Jan 13 2009, 07:02 PM']I recently asked a very 'beginner' question and got lots of answers. If I had posted that on a beginners forum, what would the difference be, do you think? Cheers ped[/quote] Ped , i think theres a bit of a diffence when such an established memeber such as your good self asks a question than when a brand shiny new person asks it. I mean that in the nicest possible way. Cheers Matt Edited January 13, 2009 by Absolute-beginner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe what the world needs is a bit more black'n'white thinking. Remind me never to discuss sex, politics or religion with you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
