Actually, in my years of guitar playing before I was bassist, I was just in denial of what I really am. I was a bassist all along but now I'm out of the closet and proud. No more little strings and big ego for me.

Sounds pretty sweet, the shirt I'm wearing just now simply says "Bass Player"

I also have one with "Sleep. Eat. Bass."

There was a time when I would have bought that shirt, but thank god I've already recovered. Dark days.

I have one that says "Bass players do it deeper"

Get some funny responses to it. Most people love it!
