Hello All!

Hey ladies and gents justbwant to introduce myself. First and foremost I am nothing but a dirty gear whore. I am filthy and I have been with lots of suitors.

History - I bought a bass 26 years ago and played some bass in garage bands in high school. Nothing more than root note plucking and frequency filling. I then switched to guitar in bands and played out for a few years. I kinda stopped playing for a long while but never stopped collecting. I ended up after long layoffs playing in a couple of bands. In one our bass player bailed and I decided to play bass. I have loved the new challenge. Learning to be a bassist is really a great perspective for me. So I am on a quest looking for tone and technique in my journey. Not that I am not on guitar still but I have 25 years of messing with things so I know what I like, how it sits in a mix and what and when to play.

I was an old harmony central guy too back around 99-2002. I am on the gear page etc... since I am on this new path of sorts though I need to read and pick the brains of you guys down in the trenches. Look forward to learning a lot from all if you!
