Hi everyone,
It's been a while since I made any real contributions to this site, so I thought I'd reintroduce myself and get back on here.

I've been playing bass since I was about 13/14 so about 15 years altogether. Not been playing so much recently as Ive been somewhat busy with work. I'm a full time live and studio sound engineer as well as promoter for a venue in Aber.

Currently playing a Yamaha SPV 500 with a GK head alon with a number of pedals. I'll have pics of my rig and board up soon.

This has been a great forum that I'm constantly coming back to and this time ill aim to get on here a fair bit more.

Cheers, Matthew

Student at Aber same time as you. Was learning to play bass and tried forming a band with Raj, but Joe stole him from me. Er, big green coat, that I still wear.

We're you the sound engineer at the Roc Sock meetings?

I remember introducing myself as a basschat member a while back to the sound engineer who very kindly lent me their GK head and alesis compressor.

Small world eh.[/quote]

It is a very small world, especially when its got something to do with Aber. The six degrees of separation dosnt really apply here. Can usually be done in 3 or less.
