jazz basses are really nice, especially the older ones if you can find one. my friend had one for a while, the action is just magnificent. he played through an svt solid state head and an ampeg 8x10, it sounded fantastic.

i'd really like to pick up an upright bass sometime but as of right now i have nowhere to put it, nor the money to invest in a half decent one.

Yeah I just need something to record with and ive always been a fan of the jazz bass' sound. I wouldn't go crazy spending money on it but the standard is only like $450 or so. One day... user added image

Been playing guitar for some 15 years now...and for the last 10 or so I only play accoustic guitars.

I own an old Lowden L-27F and an instrument that was built for me by a friend of mine (who's an aspiring instrument maker here in germany), who's name is Heiner Dreizehnter.

Not too much more equipment...that's the nice thing about accoustic instruments, that there's no need to run around with huge Marshall stacks anymore, even if you're playing gigs.

Subdivide and conquer!

Free your mind, and your ass will follow!

Been playing about six or seven years.
Had a shot at playing original music full-time. Had a Marshall half-stack, loads of pedals and a Jackson guitar. Didn't work out so I sold all the gear. Now I just bang out a few riffs now and again on my brothers Ibanez and peavey amp.

I've been playing for about the past two years just goofing around, I wish I had the time to do lessons are actually get some real guitar knowledge, I just kinda teach myself. Ive got an Epiphone Strat replica(only one i've ever seen), a wimpy 15w crate amp, a Boss Distortion Pedal, and a Digitech RP50 multieffects pedal to satisfy my needs user added image

Hey Nem, my inspirations are the sacred Gods of Rock Guitar. Known to us mortals as Slash and Angus Young.
I have a physical need to play the Highway to Hell riff at least once a day.

Lurked the forums/site for a while, figure'd I would post user added image

I've been playing bass for about 13 years. Most of the gear I use I built myself (amateur luthier, but I have built basses a few for $$).

4 string electric upright, about a half-dozen 5 strings I built myself (34-35" scale, bolt on, neck through, etc), an Ibanez BTB 6 string, a Wishnevsky 7 string (WishBasses rule!), and a MIJ Sting P-bass (upgraded EMG pickup). I've got another half-dozen or so guitars in various stages of completion.. just don't have time to work on them anymore.

I've got QSC 850 and 1850 power amps (one or the other depending on what cabinets I use/gig demands) and a Behringer V-Amp (non rack mount) that I use for a pre-amp. Every cabinet I own I've built myself as well (much cheaper than buying *if* you know how to design a bass cabinet): 4x12+mid+tweet, 2 1x12s+mid+tweet, 4x10, 2x15, 6x10+tweet. I play a lot of jazz, not so much into rock anymore (but I do enjoy the goodness of punk/ska), so a lot of the sound I built is overkill.
