Hey all,

I’m Dave and I’m happy to be here.

So bass is a 2nd instrument for me. I’ve played piano/keyboards most of my life. I play mostly classical these days, though I also play jazz and I was in a cover band back in the 80’s when I was a kid.

I really enjoy playing with other people, but that opportunity is few and far between as a pianist if you don’t do it for a living (especially as a classical musician). Hence, a friend suggesting taking up bass since there is no shortage of people looking for bass players. So, I dusted off my instrument, started looking around the web, and landed here.

I started with the B2B lessons yesterday and am having a blast so far. :smiley:

Hello Bassheads!

I’m Devin, 50+ computer sysadmin type living in Oakland, CA USA. I never really had any music training growing up (other than the bit of recorder and a few months of violin as a small child) and back in 2000 I bought myself a Fender J-bass (Show Us Your Basses (Part 2) - #2626 by devilcrayon) to try to rectify that, but never got very far. Best I did was a year or so playing along with the Rocksmith game. Now, 24 years later I picked up B2B to fill in all the basics I missed and clean up my awful self-taught technique. I just finished Module 2 and am really loving it. Josh does a great job of explaining thing and demonstrating the lessons.
