New Member based out of Texas

[Sipsip]

Hi all,

I am new to this community and am looking forward to sharing my knowledge as well as learning from others with varying experience.

I am based out of Austin, TX and play with a group that can best be described as funky, rock, electronic, post-disco, dance music.

I've played quite a lot of gear in my life and am currently playing a 4-string Warwick Corvette $$ through an Ampeg SVT-4PRO and two Ampeg SVT-410HEs.

Anyways, just wanted to drop a note and let everyone I'm excited to join the community.

Cheers,
Ryan

Austin isn't really Texas now is it?

At least that's what "real" Texans used to point out to me when I lived there.

Glad you're here. Welcome. Austin's got a great music scene as we all know. We can always use more input and insight from experienced players.
I think you'll like TB

There is Texas and there is Austin which is physically surrounded by Texas. It is sort of Texas, but lately it is more a San Francisco outpost.

Greetings Ryan, I'm sure you'll soon find that Off Topic is by far the best section of TalkBass. Don't take anything personally and don't be someone you wouldn't be in real life, and you'll fit in just fine.

Welcome to the neighborhood!

Welcome to TB. Soon you will want more basses. Then you will want bigger or more powerful amps. Then you will want bigger or lighter speaker cabs. Resistance is futile. You are doomed.......doomed I tell you. Enjoy.
