yup i play bass.
i got some weird crappy ibanez bassguitar that soinds pretty good. i got a ProAudio 400w 8band EQ head unit and a 600w quadbox with 10" speakers
I originally played guitar, but one time at band camp (haha yes hahaha whatever) i joinedu p with some band that needed a bass player. i figured, hey if i can play guitar, then sure i can play bass! And it's been downhill ever since then. mostly i rock out on guitar, but i can pwn on bass if need be. i play bass in the band i'm in, but we kinda switch and change all the time
bass is ph@t

bass is easy, and when i'm jamming i can have a lot more fun on bass because it's just that much funkier, and heavier... and feels more solid.
idk, bass is just the shizzle.

Bass is easier. I remember the first time i ever played a bass, i picked it up and sounded better than the dude who owned it just cause i played the guitar.

i kinda sorta play. i've owned a bass for like 5 years now, but have never been super hardcore about practicing, so i can play stuff and am competent enough to jam, but am in no way extraordinary, or even good. there have definitely been like 6 month long dry spells where i haven't even picked it up. however, recently i've taken to keeping it out at the foot of my bed, so it's easier to just pick it up and play for a couple minutes every now and then. i've got a G&L L2000 tribute. it's purdy.

its easier in some ways harder in others. Anyone ever heard of the brand "lotus" I picked up this bass like 2 weeks ago it sounds fucking great, better than my 400 dollar one.

i've owned my car for about 2 years now.
it has a stereo, but its not plugged in. and i'm too lazy to do it
2 years of having a car with no choons.
also, i do a 3 hour drive every few weeks. three hours without choons is weird, towards the end im just kinda talking to myself
