cureswhatailsye Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Hello all, Sayin hi as a new member from Birmingham. Play functions with 7 piece soul band, playing Big Band with MYJO, do a lot of rehearsal and gig depping, and generally whatever bits of jazz, soul and RnB I can get! Rely solely on my trusty Yamaha TRB1004 (as a very skint student, cannot afford a stack of basses, and this one does me just fine), paired up with recent investment of Eden WTX500 through an Aguilar GS112 (soon to have a twin brother!) Favourite living players: Nathan East/Jimmy Haslip/Pino (Can't wait to see Nathan tomorrow!) Cheers guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
