So update, the Jackson js5 had an awful electric static sound when not touching strings. Some people said it was grounding. Some shielding. I took it back to GC and asked them to look at it. They couldn’t identify a grounding issue, and suggested we trade it for something different. I had a little extra coin in my pocket so I was able to upgrade to the ibanez SR300EDX. Good for me.

Hi Everyone. Joined a few days ago. Had electric and acoustic basses in my office which were neglected for years due to my sysadmin job. I was on call all the time and completely stressed out. Was laid off last year and got a new job which actually has a work/life balance 
. Doing the B2B course and really enjoying it. Looking forward to hanging out with you all

Hello fellow Sysadmin, welcome. I keep a bass next to me working at home and I’ll pick it up and run through scales if I get stuck in a meeting with people who just want to hear their own voices talking about XXXX next upgrade. I haven’t had a job in 15 years that required on call, welcome to the promise land.

Welcome, @danbass. Glad you’re here. I know what it’s like to be on call for work. It is the opposite of balance. Congrats for being on the other side of that. Enjoy the lessons!

Hi everyone! I played bass (badly) for a bit back in high school - was in a short-lived punk band. Then life got in the way, my bass got left behind in the UK (I’m in Switzerland right now).
But last year I broke my leg so I bought myself a new bass to help pass the time. I pretty much need to re-learn from scratch 
I dipped into YouTube videos then, but I want to properly commit to improving now, so I recently started the B2B course 
.
It’s giving me the structure I need: just tell me what to play today and I will do it 
I’m determined to get good.

Welcome, @saroohoo. Glad you’re here. Sorry about your leg, but music has great healing power, so no doubt you’ll be up and bopping to the groove soon. Enjoy the lessons!

Thanks! The leg is all good now thankfully … though I’ll have more downtime probably this year to take all of the metal out 
So … more bass-time for me.
