Hello! My name is Melanie or just Mel. I am 15 a sophomore as of 2025 and I just started learning the bass this school year for Jazz band. I hope to learn a lot and have lots of fun on the way. Nice to meet you all 
As of now to learn more notes I’m working on the Mii channel theme, it’s going great.

Hi everyone, I’ve been on bass since high school back in the 90s. I’m still terrible but I’m persistent.
I started on a well-loved BB400 but I recently acquired a new Yamaha which has lead to be researching what lessons are out there and finally signing up to BassBuzz.
Here’s what I get to play these days:

Hi my name is Isaac, just thought I’d introduce myself to you guys. I’m a maths student at the university of Sheffield and I’ve been playing bass for about a month. I’ve just butchered Billie Jean and now I’m learning to read music in module 5.
My favourite albums rn are Relationship of Command, The Devil and God are Raging Inside Me, and Turn on the Bright Lights. I really love those albums and they’re what got me into playing bass. I have a sterling stingray ray 4.
Looking forward to learning from you all—thanks for having me!
