Markjazz Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Hi. My names mark & I'm 46. Been playing since I was around 8ish. After a long few years away from playing out live, I've just joined a band of 40 something year young musos & am really looking forward to the first proper get together in a week or so. My long time bass is a fender jazz from 1997 in sunburst, maple neck which is my number1. Amp wise it's a new 800watt fender rumble D class amp & fender 4x10. I'm gonna be heard that's for sure! Pictures to follow. Anyway. Thanks for having me hear in your bass community, I've already had a good smile at some the witty comments that's been posted, ah bass players have such good humour. 😁 Markjazz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam kemp Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Hi, I’m a bass fanatic, been playing since I was 12( I’m 43 now).... i currently have a music man 20 anniversary stingray, Warwick infinity 4 string, fender jazz aerodyne, pedulla buzz 4 string playing through a small mark bass combo as I don’t gig at the moment... when I was gigging I used a trace ah 500 through a 4x10 Mesa boogie cab which was absolutely awesome..I can’t stand farty speakers and the boogie never ever misbehaved.... I’ve owned most serious basses in the past but have slimmed the collection down from 20 to 4 basses and 2 Gibson les Paul’s(investments and the urge to learn a little) I've started to feel the urge to acquire a Bernie Goodfellow bass which I will make my next addition when I find one.... Keen to get back involved👍 Speak soon... Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the basses you have, I really would like a Warwick thumb eventually. 4x10 s are just excellent in my opinion, can't beat them. When I was last gigging sorta seriously I was using a harke 500 watt amp & 8x10 harke cab, such a pure sound, just a b*#llache to move! I've always used my trustie fender jazz, but also have fender p bass from 1978, absolutely prestine condition, though I don't take it out as it was my late step dad's. Hope you get back into again soon Sam. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good choice...I was far too precious with my Rumour though. If you ever own one I think you'll see why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
