Bassin' Again after 20 Years

**TFish** · #1 01-11-2009, 09:43 PM

Hey Everyone,

My name is Terry and am just getting back to playing after a 20 year layoff. I played in a garage band back in high school and we played a couple gigs a week.

I just bought a Carvin acoustic and am looking to getting back into playing, just for fun, maybe in church.

Gotta learn all over again. Hope to pickup some pointers from you guys.

Just to let you know I'm in the exact same situation. 25 years ago it was a big part of life. Now getting back just for fun with no illusions of fame and fortune. Hope you enjoy it as much as I am!

That's cool man! I'm quickly becoming obsessed with it. Glad to hear from you.

Good to see someone returning. It's just like a religion, it's never too late to return.

Welcome back Terry and GeniusBiker!!! Its much better the second time around, without the delusions of fame and with more cash to buy gear. And your own basement to jam in.
