Hi! just joined
I'm finally getting serious about slappin da bass mon.
I grew up listening to Rush and Yes, and as a kid I didn't need any others, but after about 35 years of listening to music I have expanded my horizons A LOT. I'm 43 and picking it up as a hobby with the goal of playing in a bar band when I retire (I'm a football coach) in about 10 years.
I know very little but have bought a Fender jazz 24 fret, and a Hartke amp and so far have just gone to youtube to learn some songs that I like (and can handle) like Pumped Up Kicks, and Electric Feel.
I am starting to learn about the root, 3rd, and 5th's... but I really just stumbled onto that!
Anyways, you will probably see me on here asking what to you may be very bassic questions, but its the only way to get better! I will eventually look into getting a teacher but I'm not ready to yet.
Cheers!
