|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2007 Location: DSM, IA | | | That's interesting. I filled in for one of my drummer's other bands on Friday night. It was straight up blues rock. Very different that my normal funk gigs. Normally their bass player uses a Gibson Grabber or a Fender P. I decided to take the Stingray. Fit in and gave them a little different taste sonically.
Congrats on the audition. Its always cool to start jamming with new folks. |

And yeah, I would think a Stingray would fit in just about anywhere. Kind of like the Fender P or J.

Some people look down on Squiers and I didn't want to make a odd first impression. The fact that they didn't care what I played was great. If they'd turned up their noses at the Squier that would have turned me off. Does that make sense?

Oh and Russ, I definitely let you know when I'm playing out. Won't be for a bit though since the group is still looking for a singer.

I still get comments from people who have never seen a 6-string bass before (and I have been playing 6-stringers since like '92...). |
