Allie Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 Hello Yan - Welcome to the forum. You've come to a place where there are plenty of friendly brains to pick away at. Have fun and enjoy your stay. Allie Quote
Weststarx Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 Hi Yan, This forums great and really helpful/friendly. No matter how stupid you think the question is, just ask away!! Quote
RickyV Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 Hi Yan and welcome! Not sure how much help I will be as I have been playing bass less time than you, but hey I am also from sunny Suffolk so at least something in common right there. Good luck with the new band. Something I will also be looking to do in the future but not sure I am quite ready yet. Enjoy! Quote

Grangur Posted September 18, 2014 Posted September 18, 2014 Hi Yan, welcome to BC. Feel free to ask. No questions are stupid.... but you will get stupid some answers. But that's some of the fun As a mature bassist you're in good company here. Quote
Yan Posted September 18, 2014 Author Posted September 18, 2014 Thanks for the welcome, always good to find a friendly place. Quote
BassTractor Posted September 18, 2014 Posted September 18, 2014 Hey Yan, and welcome from sunny Sufway! Don't pick [i]my[/i] brain though: I've been at it for only about two years and 11 months, so we're not even peers. Enjoy the forum! bert Quote
