Hello everyone

Hello! Im sam and i'm new here. Long time guitar player but only just started playing bass, so i kinda play the 4 string like a lead guitar player... NO FUNK BASS SOLOS THOUGH!

I have a fender jaguar in black, which was a bit of an impulse buy on credit, but no regrets at all, its an awesome guitar. I always wanted a 6 string jaguar so i kinda had to... and i'm pretty sure my next guitar is gunna be a Bass VI or a baritone jag, so i'm pretty set on fenders too!

I found this place during a search on what to get for my pedal board when i'm not crippled by jaguar debt anymore, and every result for "*pedal name* bass" came up with a useful like for this place, so thank you countless people for already giving very useful information!
 
Welcome to the wonderful world of bass players. I lost a toss 47 years ago and had to switch from guitar to bass. Best loss of a coin toss ever! I play with a country band, Link Removed, and would be happy to help with any info I can. I have a red Jaguar bass, and it's a great instrument. I'm also a big Phil Jones and Orange fan, so that's my amps of choice. I'm not a big bass pedal user, and a DOD stereo chorus is my only one. Enjoy becoming one of us.
