Members Thumper Posted January 25, 2009 Members Share Posted January 25, 2009 Have you played a five-string bass before? The low B string throws off some players crossing over from guitar. Otherwise, your choices sound good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Defiance Posted January 25, 2009 Author Members Share Posted January 25, 2009 ive never played bass...but i figure if im learning bass...ill start from scratch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members fingeringam Posted January 25, 2009 Members Share Posted January 25, 2009 It better be a mighty small gig for that Ampeg to make it through. I'd look more towards a Big ol' peavey combo and a Squier VM/ Classic Vibe, or hell even an SX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Kindness Posted January 25, 2009 Moderators Share Posted January 25, 2009 ive never played bass...but i figure if im learning bass...ill start from scratch That's the right approach. It's going to be a new instrument in technique and musical approach as well. You'll have a leg up on someone that has no background in guitar, but you will still be learning a new instrument.
