bonzodog Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Hello everyone. I played bass in a rock band when I was in my teens, and then moved over to lead guitar up until recently. I was asked to start a new rock/punk covers band and as the other guitarist was so amazing I offered to go back to bass.......I cannot believe what I've been missing. Playing bass again feels like I have come home and its brought back memories from playing as a kid. Just wish I had stuck to bass all along now. Bought myself an Epi Thunderbird Pro as I have always loved the look and sound and am currently on the look out for an amp for practise/small gigs/DI to PA, but needs to be fairly light (on going back problems) in region of £200. Hope to be a good contributor to this site and a long term member. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leen2112 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Welcome Bonzo, And first off - welcome back to bass, it's a smart move!

BassTractor Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Hey Dawg, Welcome, and what Leen said. Can you muster used stuff? Should open up a world of possibilities, as prices are excrutiatingly low right now. That said, as everyone wants lighter gear, it's the heavier stuff that is cheapest. Browse the Amps & Cabs For Sale forum to see. Enjoy! best, bert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
