Old Bassist

I play Bass in a Southern/Country Gospel group. We travel on the weekends to various venues around the southeast. I've been playing Bass since 1964 so I really AM an old bassist. My first bass was a 2nd hand Kalamazoo. My first new bass was a Peavey T-40. I currently play a Lakland 55-01 into a Hartke Kickback 15 direct out to the sound system. My inspiration came from Joe Osborn, Paul McCartney, John Entwistle and somewhat from Jaco. Good to be here.
