I have a few times. Lately though, I've been getting on here more from work than home, so kinda hard to play bass while on TB. The store owners didn't like it the last time I brought a bass to the store. I almost got fired simply because I had a gig half an hour after work. My keyboardist was taking my amp to the gig, but I had to bring my bass and pedals to work with me, and I had customers asking me to play stuff for them while I was on break.

Damn, that sucks. Were I'm working I get to bring my upright bass in every friday because I have a lesson later that evening. And I send all of my stuff that I buy from TB, ebay and the like to the store because it's cheaper.

Back on topic, yes I do, but not at work.

my bass is the in the other part of my room, and the amp is in there, too. if it wasn't so much work to go in, get it, and bring it all in here, i would be.

Yes! In fact, at the moment I think I've achieved the best set up yet! I have my Fender Rumble 15 next to my desk, with a line going from the headphone jack to the mic jack of the computer's sound card, and then headphones plugged into the output jack of the computer! I can play and listen to stuff at the same time, without having to switch around.

Yes too much. I find I end up spending four times as much time to get nothing done

I use to. Sadly I haven't had the drive to pick up a bass in over a year, and I have 2 of them hanging on the wall collecting dust.

Sometimes. Not know. But that's because I'm having lunch.

Not too often. But most of the time when I am playing bass I'm on the computer, sometimes on TB.
