I just picked up a Fender Squire Affinaty Jazz Bass, I don't read music, Sing a lick (don't haveta) I am going thrue a "mid life crisis" at 47.
I got rage issues, that have become unbarable, so I have been doing very DEEP self analysis.
All My hobbies are ADRENALIN filled, and while fun, I need a CHILL activity to focus on.
Cant think of any thing MORE CHILL than Bass.

Im trying to Self teach ATM. im broke as HELL ATM and shouldn't have dropped $3oo on the starter kit,,, but its brought Me hrs. of peace just picking. walking, and a little slap n pluck.
Ive just started to work on My Neck hand.
I am left handed, but chose to learn Right handed.

Lets get this old thread dusted off.

Peace; 1TT

P bass, Ampeg tubes thru a 212 cab is my #1 but I use a small SS head thru a 110 cab for lots of gigs. Mix of country and rock, mostly our own stuff but altered covers as well.

I play several instruments but bass guitar is my ABSOLUTE favorite. I play a Fender jazz through an old Peavey Mark IV series on custom built 2 x 10's and 1 x 15 cabs.

I just got home from playing tonight. It's a regular gig we have been playing every week for 9+ years. Every Wednesday.... nine years. LOL I can't believe we still bring them in. Pretty dead tonight but still made money for the club. The owner loves us.

Sorry, I'm not a bass player (drummer). But, at least we're both in the rhythm section. LOL

I am getting ready to move so I have sold all my drums save a few but I had a pretty sweet collection at one time.

Here's a shot of some of my snare drums...
