robscott Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 Hi all. Like about 200 others I just jumped ship from TalkBass today. Been peering over the hedge for a long while so thought I should become a fully paid up member. I've been playing bass for about 5 years, before that I played g****r and keys in various go-nowhere bands. Then I migrated to the bass and never looked back. Playing in three bands ATM, a gigging covers band (60s soul, R&B and party-type music), a funk band which I started up just before lockdown (doh!) and a jazz quartet ( to drag me out of my comfort zone). I play Yamaha TRB fretless for jazz, a TRBX 305 for funk and a self build p type bass for a more classic vibe. I play through a Markbass 500 Tube and 2 Vanderkley 112 EXTs and have an always-off dx166 compressor. Looking forward to lots of interesting bass chat! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard R Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 Welcome aboard! TRBX305 is a nice bass 🎵 @ped - we don't have to pay import duty on all these US Bassists do we? Just US Basses? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I jumped over here when they banned me a month ago. Now their building burned down. Coincidence...? I gotta say, I have had a good laugh, and a nod since finding out about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a 30 day ban for "trolling." someone responded to a post of mine, and I replied back. They called that trolling because it was off topic. I had a few points on my record already, so that one probably just put me over the "suspension" limit. That's all. Ban was lifted on the 23rd.
