An acoustic guitar and a six string bass. A match made in heaven? possibly. We are starting a band. A band unlike any other.
I refuse to play follow-me bass. I want to be more than just "low end." I will create melody. I will add power and other things.
Does anyone else share my views? |

This is a bass forum. You should probably go over to talk guitar.  |
