Hello everyone,

I just joined today after lurking for a month or so. I started playing bass around 1987. I have been in a few bands that went no where beyond local back then, like the rest of us. Band names: Kaotic Conflict, Jacky Paper, Citrus Cow (still have hopes to revive this name) and Rumble. Since that time, I went to 6 strings and played Metal and Punk style for years. Lately I was having the itch to get back into playing bass after a buddy of mine said he might want to expand his solo acoustic blues rock gig. I wound up falling in love with 4 strings again.

I used to have a 100w GK head (model unknown) with a yamaha 15" cab. I lent the head to a buddy of min Joe about 15 years ago. I haven't seen it since. I was stuck with a 10w and 20w Crate amps, the 20w with a blown speaker. My guitars are a left handed Aria Pro II and a right handed Series 10. The Aria needs to get set up as the neck is out since I haven't played that one in about 15-17 years. The Series 10 is still playing well. My excellent wife surprised me with a new GK MB112 bass amp for Christmas that arrived today. May the house rumble with low tones!

So thats my story in a nut shell.

Thanks for the warm welcome. At this point I can only fill you in on being a bassest 20 years ago. I am long out of it when it comes to equipment, processors, effects, etc. This is the first piece of Equip I bought in probably 17 years. 2 Acoustic guitars, 3 Electric, and 2 basses plus 5 amps and a ton of old effects stuff.
