baird6869 Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 (edited) Hi there, Finally got around to joining Basschat! Looks like a great place to spend time. I have been playing bass on and off (off for 5 years when I got married and had kids) for 25 years. I finally have the time to play out a lot and am currently in 4 different bands. I play metal, blues, country, funk, etc. I gig a few times a month and love it. Gearwise, here is what I am currently using (I am a bit of a gear nut ).... Basses: 2008 Benavente Vortex Fretless 5 2008 Gibson Thunderbird IV 2006 EBMM 30th Anniversary Stingray 4 H 2008 Fender Precision American Standard 2007 Fender Jazz American Deluxe 5er 1974 Fender Precision 1973 Fender Jazz 1994 Fender Stu Hamm Urge 1980 Peavey T-40 Squier Vintage Modified Fretless Relic Morgan Monroe acoustic bass guitar Ned Steinberger WAV 4 EUB Heads: GK 1001RB-II Genz Benz GBE1200 TC Electronic RH450 Cabs: Sadowsky SA410 cab Ampeg 4x10 cab TC Electronics RS210 and RS112 cabs Looking forward to posting here!
