I think maybe I’m a dying breed. A true bassist. Never really played guitar at all aside from noodling around on the guitars of band members. I might know three chords if I even remember them.
And the fretless is my main. It’s amazing! I only ever use the ESP for tapping and percussive playing.
A gold star bassist, nice!
I played quite a bit of bass in my early days. I wasn’t good, but at least I could get in the groove and play. For the last 15+ years I’ve played acoustic guitar almost exclusively.
I’ve learned that playing bass is nothing like riding a bike—whenever I do pick it back up it, I feel like a total beginner. It’s shown me just how different bass is from six string. The instruments are extremely similar but played so differently.
If I send you a genuine-imitation-platinum-star bassist pin, will you promise to wear it whenever you play?
I want one too!
I love it!
hell yeah putting that on my business card
