Hi!

Hey everyone.
I’ve been playing for about a year and a half now. Guess it’s never too late to start (I’m 50 now). TalkBass came up on a bunch of searches I was doing for info, so I figured I’d join.
I’ve got a collection of 8 basses already. I’m having fun experimenting with different tones and such. The latest bass is a bit of an oddity - a Washburn Bantam Headless (the Steinburger clone). However, it’s not like any one I’ve seen in pictures... the lettering is different, I can’t find a serial number anywhere, and the output jack is on the back of the body. As well, there’s no lettering in the gig bag that was made for it. It’s kind of beat up (like the owner), but a lot of fun to play.
Thanks for the advice I’ve gotten from the forums, and I hope to be able to contribute!
