Hi, I'm 65 and have experience with blues,rock, and country bands back in the late 70's - early 80's.
Favorite bassists are Carl Radle, Duck Dunn, James Jamerson, Greg Lake, and a few others.
I just play at home these days. Had nice gear in the past but for now my Squier Mini P and Ampeg B108 suffice. I'll upgrade after I sell some electric guitar gear I never use. Not many pedals but my Keeley Bassist and Broughton Always On HPF are always in use.
Anyhow, off to browse the threads here !
