de003 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Hi all, i've just joined and have been directed to post an introduction. i'm David, i have been playing bass for 15 years (guitar for 17 and piano for around 25). i am 'classically trained' so to speak. I played in bands from 2006 through 2008, first in a heavy stoner rock / grunge kind of band (think Sabbath, QOTSA, Zeppelin), then a classic indie rock band (think Stone Roses, Verve, Kula Shaker). I worked in studios 2008-2011 as an assistant engineer, then began touring as a technician which i really did, all over the world, until coronavirus hit us. Looking to find a 'normal job' and begin performing again. Got a few auditions coming up and dug my bass out of storage too. i really miss being in a band, and working for one isn't the same. i play an Epiphone EB-3 (full scale SG bass), and a Cruiser CX-100 which despite it's price tag is, in my opinion, a great bass. Noise comes from Ampeg SVT heads and an Ashdown 4x10. i still love my Bass POD XT as well. Looking forward to sharing experiences here.

Richard R Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Welcome aboard! I've got a proper job. They're overrated, but do enable me to feed the family. If I had to rely on my interests to feed them...🙄. Good luck on the auditions! 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
