New bass, new member

Hi -

I've been a six string player for years and years, I've picked up a bass a few times, but I've never owned one until...

I walked into a thrift store about a week ago and saw what turns out to be a cherry Hagstrom Swede laying on the counter. $80. What a cool instrument. I've got an Ampeg guitar amp that I've been playing through at low volumes, haven't got to jam with it yet. Maybe tomorrow.

I was looking at one of my favorite sites (Audiokarma) and saw a link to here, so here I am.
