rasher80 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Hello all, Thought i'd make a proper introduction. My name's James, i'm from Manchester and i've been a bassist for 4 years now. I started on the guitar (as you do!) and played for about 8 years - and found once i started mucking about on the bass i didn't want to go back! I've been in a couple of bands and am now a bass player in an indie-rock band called The Satellite Towns. If anyone's read my original post in Basses, they'll know i'm a left hander. You'll probably also know that there isn't a great deal of choice when it comes to left hand basses, especially with Fender which are my preferred brand! I have a Squier P bass special which i haven't got round to modding, which i'm ashamed to say is my current no 1 bass. I had a MIM Jazz which i really liked and want to go back to, but i traded it up for a Rickenbacker 4004L which i now need to sell due to needing some wheels for work. And the neck was a bit uncomfortable as i have smallish hands. I have a fairly basic set-up, the bass is run straight into an Ashdown MAG-300 C115 and occasionally use a USA Big Muff for a bit of dirt. Anyway, Hola Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rasher80 Posted October 30, 2008 Author Share Posted October 30, 2008 Well i've never had any trouble with mine - perhaps i ought to cut it some slack! Is that a Squier in your pic? I'd love one of those - except they don't make them left handed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
