MFD Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Hello hello. I've been a music lover for a long time, and after a Victor Wooten concert this summer I decided to pick up the bass and start learning. Been practising at least an hour everyday, with studybass.com as my guide, for almost two months. Private lessons are booked in september. Sometimes playing with friends (a guitarist, drummer and singer), who are really helpful. Listening a lot to Japan and Talk Talk at the moment, fascinated by the fretless bass guitar. I'll be around here looking for tips and perhaps ask some questions. That's all, thanks. Quote

Leen2112 Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Welcome MFD I too like the fretless bass, but after listening to Mick Karn from Japan I decided it made better firewood! There is some nice bass in the talk talk stuff too, more manageable though.......go for it! Cheers Leen. Quote
