I have been reading this forum since its creation, and although i've haven't posted much, i have found it to be extremely inspiring.
The podcasts are great, and i know i am learning lots of stuff as someone who is thinking more and more about playing bass professionally.
I know it's important to develop your own sound, and have your own voice, and everything, but i am extremely tempted to tune my bass EADGC in order to try to practice some of the things you play.
I am also amazed at the bass' community these days, this along with Vic and Steve's bass vault are just amazing things to have for young bassists like me.
Anyway, thanks a lot for the work you put into this, it keeps me practicing.
