I am finally becoming part of this comunity

[Carlos-JC]

Hi all — Carlos 

Bass is strictly a hobby for me — no bands, no recording goals, no career angle. I’ve been playing 15+ years, but mostly on and off, pretty basic for a long time… until my own kid started playing guitar and I decided I’d better up my game so I don’t embarrass her 😄

 

I’m into the rabbit holes: tone, feel, ergonomics, and building/modding instruments purely for personal satisfaction. I’ve attached a photo of sume of my current lineup (I have also an spector NS 5 multiscale that I hardly use) — a small herd of 4/5 strings with a strong bias toward headless and multiscale ideas. Musically I lean rock/alt/metal, and I’m always chasing that balance between clarity, punch, and comfort under the hands.

Looking forward to learning from everyone here — and if anyone wants to nerd out on setups, strings, pickups, or weird gear choices, I’m in.

Welcome. Nice Malawi tank, I think?

 

That's a nice lineup.

Thanks, yes, Malawi  and some parrot fish

Excellent. Out of interest, is it the NS Dimension 5 you have? If you ever fancied moving it on I'd be interested...
