Robbo Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Just wanted to introduce myself I joined the forum a couple of years ago but never got started had all good intentions but my wife has been ill for a number of years and I packed up before I even started sold the gear I had. But hopefully a new year and new start just purchased a second hand Ibanez bass for £80 and a Blackstar guitar combo as their wasn’t any bass combo’s for sale, but hopefully it’ll do for the time being I practice with headphones anyway because I’m awful at the moment. Very late start at 62 but played a bit of acoustic guitar in the past, all the best to everyone and I’ll see how I get on 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard R Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Welcome aboard! Hope you're wife is better. Wives, husbands and family are far more important than playing bass. Just don't ever let on to them. 😉 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard R Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Oh - and if you're starting late (like I did) don't beat yourself up about progress. Brain and fingers take a while to get warmed up, but they will. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
