Stinger Ray Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 Hello all, Just recently discovered your wonderful site and thought I'd take a minute and say hello. So, Hello. Been playing Bass since 1982, I guess I'm an old timer anymore.... but it's still lots of fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard R Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 Welcome aboard! I can never read the name Pennsylvania without mentally adding a shout of "6-5000" at then end of it. I'm way too young to have that stuck in my head! What do you play? I'm guessing Stingray? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stinger Ray Posted May 29 Author Share Posted May 29 Hey Now... Thanks for all the welcomes... I apologize... i walked away for a while and didn't realize I was still logged in... wasn't ignoring anyone... Here's what I put in my profile, I haven't gotten round to uploading photos, I never really did much of that kind of thing. I always felt like I was being pretentious or something similar.... PLAYING BASS SINCE 1982 '82 P Bass - Black/Maple (bought it new @ 15 yrs old) '98 SR5 H Black/Maple '12 SR5 Classic H Special Edition: Active/Passive, Black/BE Maple '15 SR5 Classic H Black/Rose '17 Jazz Bass Am Pro V Black/Maple '24 Pbass V Am Pro II 3TSB/Rosewood '04 Ampeg SVT 3 Pro (USA) - Ampeg PR410hlf QSC: GX5 Sunn Coliseum 300 - Acoustic 406 2x15 As for "what" do I play? as in Music? Pretty much anything but "Country" or high end Jazz.. I'm "capable physically" of ripping fusion Jazz solos...it never appealed to me, to play.... Although... I do love it. I started Trombone 8 yrs old then bagged it for Bass... I bought my Pbass in '82... I still have it... COUNTLESS THOUSANDS of hours on that Bass... My War Horse ha.. I cut my early Bass teeth on records Sabbath, Maiden, Yes, Rush, Zeppelin, Zappa, Hendrix, The Who, Motown, Stevie Wonder & Lot's of 70's slap funk!! Entwistle, Geezer & Squire were my favs to learn from... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was disproportionately sad to learn the hotel closed in 2020 and still had that phone number Anyway, welcome to the forum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
