New user here. No bass as yet.

Hi all. I'm actually a guitar player, but I've started to become interested in bass lately too. My cousin (who is also a guitar player) just joined my band as our new bass player, and he needs gear. He has a bass, but he's a little short on cash because he just bought a house and had a baby. I decided that it's time I get a bass rig, so that he'll have something to use until he can afford his own.

I'm looking forward to learning as much as I can about gear and technique, so I'm really glad I found this forum.
