Andrewsl76 Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 Hello Basschat! I am new here and hoping to learn as much as I can about bass guitars and recording. I have played bass for a while and gigged (last time was 1996) but never really been part of a bass community. My current set up is nothing. Zero. I don’t have equipment!! One of the first things I am looking to do is build back up. I will hopefully have a bass soon. Hoping to complete a deal on here. I prefer four string fretted but have owned a Sei Bass six string (headless) previously and various precision basses. I sold all my gear years ago when I needed to fund studies as I moved away from live music in 1996 and into a job! I am not looking to get back into gigging, just recording as I want to get back into writing and experiment with home studios etc. Looking forward to learning from you all. Andrew. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massive thanks to @Oldman for being so welcoming and agreeing to sell to me. Basschat has a section for Feedback on member transactions. You can search the section by member name and get an idea of their reputation with dealings on site. It's good form to let people know how deals go afterwards for that reason. Here is a link to Oldman's Feedback. Glad to hear you are getting set up again. I wish you a lot of fun with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
