Hello Everyone. I discovered this forum looking for parts. I have been playing bass sporadically since 1988. I've played various styles starting with metal to blues, some punk, reggae and now back to metal. The only style I have not been involved with is slap/funk, which I hope to improve on. I'm not that good at any one thing. I consider myself an average bass player.

My bass collection includes 5 basses (ranging from $199 - $899).

Washburn B-2 - This is an entry level bass. The action wasn't good but what do you expect from a $199 bass? It is the bass I learned on. My very first one.

Spector NS2A - This is a Korean made Spector. I purchased this at a Guitar Center back in 1990. I saved up $800 back in 1990 to buy this when I was 16 years old. It was sold under the Kramer name (Kramer went out of business less than a year later). It is the best playing bass that I have. This is the one I use for shows.

Ibanez Soundgear SR400 - I purchased this used about a 1 1/2 years ago (I can't quite remember). It's a solid bass. I use it in my jam sessions.

Peavey Foundation - I have no idea how old this one is. I remember a friend had one in the 80's. I bought this with the Soundgear above for a package total of $275 from a guy off of Craigslist who was only advertising the SR400.

ESP LTD Surveyor 405 - The newest addition. I've only had it for one month. This is my first 5 string bass and I want to experiment with the low "B".

I'm looking forward to chatting on these forums.

Forgot to mention. I use Dean Markley Blue Steel strings. I've had incredible luck with these.

My amps include the following...

Gallien Kruger RB400 + Sunn cabinet (This thing is old but is has a 12" over an 18"). It's rugged and heavier than !@#$.

Peavey Max 115 - My practice amp at home.
