| | | | Christmas Gift for Professional Bass Player-HELP
Sign in to disble this ad
My boyfriend is a professional bass player. I am trying to think of something awesome to get him for Christmas. He plays a Lakland (I think it's the Skyline series?)
Sidenote- He knows a guy at Lakland and the bass he has was one from the Foo Fighter's bassist. Cool.
Anyways, I want to get him something really nice for his bass for Christmas and I'm not sure what would go well with that? I have been looking at things like
The EBS Fafner II... But I have not idea... Help, advice on products, etc would be beneficial for me. |

If he's a pro, he's likely to have everything he needs and it's very difficult to make guesses about things that he wants without knowing a little more.
What type(s) of music does he play, for a start?

Ask his bandmates if he's been talking about needing or wanting anything as well.
