: : I have been a guitar player for 30 years. In
: highschool, I played bass in some punk bands.
: I was sort of a Dee Dee Ramone type player.
: Anyway, in the past few months, I noticed
: that I was mainly playing bass lines on the
: guitar, so I got a elcheapo bass on eBay. A
: passion started!!!! Last weekend I got a
: Yamaha RBX200F, which I know is cheap, but
: the neck feels GREAT and the whole thing sits
: comfortably when I play. Eventually, I'll
: upgrade it's electronics. It had round
: wounds on it, but I put flats on yesterday.
: My years on guitar has given me
: lots-o-fretboard knowledge, so I'm already
: jamming along. By the way, no, I don't play
: like Dee Dee anymore. I have a much more
: melodic style. Sure, I need time to learn
: techniques, etc. Mainly, I'm playing guitar
: on the bass, while I learn. Lots of Hendrix
: parts, etc. FUN FUN FUN!!!
: Playing with out frets is new, but I love the
: "singing voice" sound!!! My guess
: is that I've been a closet bass player all
: these years. But, I'm out now!!!! I'm even
: seriously considering getting rid of my
: guitars (ugh!!!!)!!!!
: Just wanted to say "hi" and let you
: know I'm here.
