I believe I qualify to be at this site since I started my musician's quest on a bass in the 5th grade. However now I play guitar (Gibson J100, Fender MIM Tele, Ibanez Artcore) ...but wait oh you zealots!! I'm about to pull the trigger on a 5 string bass, and de-evolve back to bass...So I AM allowed at talkbass...

Now, now. Just wait until the lad sees the error of his ways and puts down the six-stringed tenor basses for good.

Either that or he's a troll, in which case we run him outta town and burn him in a field.

Just kidding... I think.

Ok, perhaps de-evolve was a bad choice of words....after all, the bass is where i learned how to play music..and accually, I have much still to learn on the bass..ie. slapping well. Anywho, thanks for the warm welcome...
