Hello from Intro

Hello everyone. Figured I'd stop lurking and actually join
I'm 29 and started playing bass at 19 (guitar came first, at 12).

Id like to think I've come a long way since I first tried to play as a gigging bassist with no bass experience (I had the basic idea how to play bc of guitar, I just didn't know how to stop noodling and just groove!).

Don't have a band currently, but I do weekly bass/guitar jams with my best bud, until we finally find a suitable drummer.

Anyway, hope everyone is safe and doing well.

 

Thank you all for the warm welcome! This is the only pic I have at the moment (my rig stays at my bud's house). My P Bass, 3 Pro, 810 CL, Swollen Pickle, and Dunlop Bass Wah.

I ended up trying a revolving door of basses to end up with my P. I tried a Jazz, Ibanez 5'er, a Peavey Millenium, and an LTD. The P just works so well.

 

It's definitely become my workhorse. I never thought I'd be able to get so many tones out of just one passive pickup. For our more relaxed songs I can just turn down the tone knob and go with a light touch. If I want to get heinous grind, just turn the tone knob back up to 10 and dig in hard on my right hand attack. It's been a game changer for me!
