Friend of a forumite saying "hi"...

Hello, been recommended by a certain Dream Theater obsessed mate to sign on as I'm currently looking for a midrange bass, and was told you're all friendly, welcoming chaps. I'm not new to the net by any means, so please don't pwn me for being a noob - I'm also not a particularly experienced bassist by any means, so am prone to asking daft questions!

Heheh, thanks. I'm now thinking of dipping my toes in the "what should I get" line of posting, but frankly I've no idea what to say, or what I'm looking for. :)

"Interesting" factoids about me - I play bass because I broke my finger in my early teens and can't really wrap my hand around a guitar properly. I usually play with three fingers to avoid using my little one... I've never been in a band, yet I've played other instruments "live" when I was a sprat (violin). I play for pleasure and also the insane jealousy of my mate whose on this forum, who's not only very talented but owns a couple of Warwick thumb basses which I look at lovingly and sometimes "have a go" on (for as long as possible). :rolleyes:

Well theres always time to get into a band at some point :)
but at the moment, your having fun as you are, so thats cool.

well once you know what kinda bass your after, and the price range, you should start a thread.

seeing as you seem you like Warwick basses, have you looked at the 'Rock Bass' Warwick series?

Thanks guys! :)

I've been doing nothing but browse the sale section salivation at the range of sumptuous potential sounds (yikes) for over an hour now... and just posted a thread, hopefully in the right place, explaining kind of what I'm looking for and why. :lol:

The sale section doesn't just whet your appetite, it makes an abyss in your stomach. :rolleyes:

thats some serious street cred. there! :)

the sei thread is tasty. got some serious GAS for a 7 string looking in there. the alembic, status, jaydee and shuker threads are also pretty hot stuff

i see you're looking for a new bass. might i suggest you consider a spector? something along these lines...
