Tiger50 Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 Hey everyone, After mucking around with various basses belonging to my mates at various points over the last couple of years, I decided to get my own axe and get into it a bit more seriously. Not long after christmas I picked myself up one of those build-your-own kits from the internet, put it together and whacked an EMG into it (i'm currently writing up a thing on the build for another site at the moment, i'll post it when i get round to finishing it!). As it turns out, the bass is playing much better than i expected it to, which i'm pretty pleased about! It's all good on the playing front, i'm having a blast learning some new songs but i'm still trying to get used to using fingers only after playing electric/acoustic guitar for the past 5 years! Also, I'm hoping to learn how to play some slap/pop style stuff in the near future after a friend of mine introduced me to a couple of Larry Graham vidoes on youtube. Are there any other similar artists that you guys suggest I check out? Cheers T Quote
