pricechris10 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Hello there, I had a long "rest" from playing bass and got back into it last year. My main influences are Andy Fraser, Les Holroyd, Steve Harris, Geddy Lee, Herbie Flowers, and Phil Lynnot. Main styles of playing are blues, rock and metal. I currently have 2 bass guitars. 1: a 5 string Shine SBT-705 ( not the best....but not a bad bass at all.) 2: a "one-off" from our very own Mr. Paul ( Prosebass ) Rose. Very good bass indeed. My wife also has taken to the art and has 2 basses 1: A 1/2 size Johnson ( no puns please! ), which was bought for the kids! 2: A late 1980's Washburn Force ABT B20. ( Nice solid bass ) I play for recreation now but have been in a couple of local bands ( many moons ago ). I'm here to pick up ideas and tips for my own set-up and playing. So I won't be bugging people unless I'm after info! OK...so that's me! Thanks for reading! Chris Price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beerdragon Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Welcome to Basschat, i think i passed through Moreton in the Wirral going to a gig one or twice before they put a new road in, either that or there's a pub called the Moreton and i'm getting confused.

Peter Train Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Welcome to the forum. As your wife plays does that mean you have less problems when you suffer from GAS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As your wife plays does that mean you have less problems when you suffer from GAS?[/quote] Hi Peter, WEEELLLLLLLLLL...................erm.............NO! My missus went halves on my last bass and now she's into it I think she's mellowed! BUT... it's still a delicate subject to approach. I think she is secretly hoping that my next aquisition will free up my 5string! Luckily I don't get GAS too often! but since I found this site I have had "urges". I assume you get a fair bit of stick when GAS strikes! ( Jewellery and handbags usually ease the pain.. ) Cheers and all the very best, Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
