Hallo

Heylo everyone!

I'm an aspiring Jersey-an bassist at the tender age of 14 who goes by the name Chris. 2 years ago I bought that Hartke bass starter-y thing and am currently deciding on what intermediate bass to buy (I've heard some good stuff about the Washburn Taurus...just haven't accually HEARD the Washburn Taurus :) )

Musical plans for the future: Get a Rick 4001, get a Stick, get a Moog Taurus.

Musical Influences: Yes, King Crimson, good Genesis, Gentle Giant, Spock's Beard, Zappa, most prog.

Anyway, so far (from browsing) the forums have been cool, and I've learned alot, but am still a bass noob...soo...don't mind me :ninja: :D

-Chris

Oh yeah, anyone who has advice on a good monderately priced bass (were talking like not in the thousands) thats not a Fender, let me know. Thankee.

I'm in the same boat it seems you almost have to pay 1,000.00 to get anything worth playing. Great music taste by the way.
