Just out of curiosity, why the change from guitar to bass?

Jax,

Guitar has been a struggle since I picked it up, a constant fight to play mediocre at best.. With the bass I feel at home, I learn, play, and like it so much better.. COULD OF SAVED ALOT OF MONEY IF I FIGURED THIS OUT SOONER LOL

I remember the thread you posted a while ago about struggling with the guitar! perhaps Bass guitar is your true calling so enjoy the journey mate!!!

BTW I love you gear!!!

Nice to see you excited about playing again.

However I do not see one of these in your collection.

And you wont LOL.. I am not a fan of the P-Bass at all, not a single thing about that bass interests me.. Now a J-Bass fretless is on the list of next items.

I hear that. I'm glad you found your calling; there is nothing like trying to invest in something that doesn't seem to be doing it for you.

Good luck, and we hope to hear some jams from you soon!

+1

Enjoy the bass. I never "switched" but I did play bass for about 4 years in a busy original band and it was the best thing that ever happened to my guitar playing. Made me understand music better and turned my pinky into f'ing little Superman! It's nice having all that power and balls behind you! I never knew how much fun bass was until I did it for a while. ROCK.

hahahaha Ayrton you damn purists LOL

watch the man freak out guys, there ugly, weigh a metric ton, and that pickguard makes me want to vomit. HAHAHA put that in your P-bass and smoke it.

**Ayrton** · #14 03-09-2007, 12:35 AM

OMG, I can't breath....

The P Bass is the SHTI!

Anyway, I suppose this could be an acceptable replacement. A friend had one of these and I thought it was soooo nice.
