Viper Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 As the title says, a hello from Mark in deepest darkest 'ampshire! Just getting back in to playing bass ... with a crappy tanglewood complete with warped neck. However, I am very tempted in getting myself a new tool... do I splash the cash?

Telebass Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 (edited) Hi Mark! Erm, the answer to that particular question on here is, of course, YES! And have a really good time doing it, testing every bass that takes your fancy. What bass *does* take your fancy right now?

Kiwi Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 welcome Mark, whereabouts in Hampshire are you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viper Posted June 28, 2007 Author Share Posted June 28, 2007 (edited) Thanks for the welcome folks. To answer the questions, I am in Eastleigh. As for the question of which Bass, well I am tempted by a Stingray. After playing a 20th anniversary edition a few years back, loved it but alas not had the cash at the time. I would really class myself as a beginner, so I'm debating if I should get something a wee bit cheaper or just say 'what the hell' and get something that I wouldn't get rid of for many years. Cheers, Mark Edited June 28, 2007 by Viper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E_MaN Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 Hi Mark! Eastleigh eh? Which part, not the rough part I hope! ;P Stingrays are beautiful basses! And if your worrying about the price, buy second hand! Can get some great deals on Stingrays nowadays? Evil Bay is your friend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the money side of things, I ain't too worried because I had money saved up for something else I was gong to buy - that'll have to wait now!
