MetricMike Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 Hi Although mainly a guitarist I have been lurking here for a little while and thought that it is about time I introduced myself. I am from Nottingham and have been playing guitar for more years than I care to remember. Mainly covers these days although I have hardly gigged in last 3 or 4 years. I do play some bass and in the past have played bass in a reggae(ish) based band, but these days I only play bass on a very casual basis. My current bass (only have one) is a Spector Legend 5 string. I discovered dance music a few years ago (having dismissed it for a long time as not played by "real" musicians) and these days most of the music I listen to is computer produced, lots of drum n bass, some deep house and anything else that catches my ear. Players that I admire (and hopefully have influenced my playing) include Bernard Edwards and Robbie Shakespeare on bass, and on guitar, Nile Rodgers, Pat Metheney, Keith Richards and Jimmy Page amongst others.

Silvia Bluejay Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 (edited) Welcome, Mike! Perhaps now that you're part of our community you will play bass on a more regular basis? There is also an "Other Instruments" subforum on this site. Edited February 28, 2012 by bluejay Quote
