cdog Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 Hi, I just wanted to introduce myself. I started playing bass in '93 so I could be in a rock band with my friends and played in a few bands plus school shows through sixth form, but then stopped playing in bands for a long time. I learned guitar and harmonica, did lots of busking and jamming, mostly on guitar, with aim of being able to jam with anyone. The last few years I've been in a Christmas band with mates playing to friends, and I just joined a band at the beginning of the year back on bass. I'd forgotten how fun it is to play bass with a drummer. We are kind of hip hop folk not quite rock, it's hard to describe. We are just a three piece and we are keen to have bass as a fairly prominent part of the sound. After our first gig people said it was a bit rage, a bit chilli peppers, so I'll take that! I've got my old vintage Warwick thumb bass rip off from the 90s, and a squire pj with flats, and recently got a sire v7 five string which is totally sick, though quite heavy. I have been playing through my boss me50 which has some great sounds for bass even though it's a guitar FX really, and I'm quite keen to meas around with more FX, while not having a huge budget... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asingardenof Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Welcome! Loving that someone else is rocking the Squire P and Sire V7 stable, although my V7 is a 4 not a 5. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's some recordings, but the guitarist has moved to electric now, so I'd say the folky feel has gone a bit. It's the ones marked live.
