Cholly Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 I was strung out on Bach but Beethoven was my thang... I just entered into the BassChat dimension and parked my MotherShip. I've been playing for a while, since '75 in R&B and Funk and Fusion groups but the last 8 years in contemporary gospel serving at the church where I fellowship. A few bassists I really admire happen to dwell on your side of the Atlantic so I hope to learn more about them from you guys who have probably seen them multiple times. And I know I'll have a good time with the verbal exchanges. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cholly Posted April 24, 2014 Author Share Posted April 24, 2014 (edited) Thanks all and your responses put a smile on my face. More about me. I bought my first bass a Pan/Alembic Jazz in 1975 (still have it) when I started lessons. Not too long thereafter I began playing in different R&B/ Funk/ Fusion ensembles up until 2006 when I dropped a lot of the secular work and began playing gospel. Besides my Pan/Alembic Jazz I have a Zolla P/J and a Warmoth Gecko 5wide. I have two rigs, one is an Alembic F2-b into a Carver power amp and I also have an SWR Mo'Bass using two 4x10 cabs.

Cholly Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 Stuart Zender, Nick Beggs, Tony Levin, Paul Turner and Mark King for starters. I also like Linley Marthe, Guy Nsangue, Ettiene Mbappe among other bassists who don't frequent my side of the Atlantic often enough or at all.
