Stance Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 H there, My name is Alex, I´m from Portugal, and I`ve been playing bass since 1993. I dig vintage gear that´s why I have a couple (make that 5 70´s fenders), 2 80´s Stingrays and a 67 Silvertone (along with the usual suspect - Warwick) Amp wise I have a 70´s Ampeg SVT (That thing is HEAVY!!) and a 8x10,4x10, and 1x15 (all Ampeg-I should be sponsored lol), but due to its weight (or lack of it when compared to the SVT) I use a GK700RBII. Hope to have fun and learn some more about the art of bass and everything linked to it while I´m here! Cheers Quote
