BluRay Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Hey up I've been playing for around 24 years, nowadays mostly just for fun. I seem to have caught the geek-bug and become overly interested in tone, quality etc. Overcompensating, maybe? Dementia? I'm sure it always used to be ok without thinking about it as much! I’m a recent convert to MM Stingray (the extra H was well worth it), and Ashdown ABM stuff (reading some comments here, this seems to be a like-it-or-not thing rig, but I'm really happy with it so far). Vaguely thinking I should have taken lightweight options a bit more seriously, but hey if it fits in a car then thats still a leap forward. I wonder if anyone else has a Peavey 1820 cab – which was part of my first proper rig. It still sounds great after 20+ years – but weighs more than our freezer, so its rooted to the spot at home. It may even have moss growing on it. Anyhow, its good to be here. Speak soon hopefully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mykesbass Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Welcome to the forum I think the tone/quality thing comes with age and wealth - which is why I've only half caught it Plenty of people on here to share your obsession with. Have fun, Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluRay Posted January 27, 2010 Author Share Posted January 27, 2010 Thanks Mike. The wealth, such as it was, is now firmly distributed between Sterling Ball, Mark Gooday and their trusted intermediaries. I'm now saving for a better quality plectrum :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat Burrito Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Welcome. I too agree search for tone seems to come with age / experience, or at least it did for me too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
