Starting up an Instrument - Page 3

I've been looking at http://www.musiciansfriend.com/produ...Amp?sku=519634

It's gotten good reviews, and it's quite cheap. I dunno if this is something I should be looking at or not.

I got some replies from my post and people said that the squire and ibanez packs are "good" (everything is relative

) starter packs.

Go for the starter pack, if bass clicks with you then all good - if not, then i'm sure there will be decent resale for others like yourself who want to start up.

Once you start getting good, you can aim toward a new bass - once you get hold of this, not only will it sound and play better but i've always found that a new instrument is a great source of inspiration...

Keep a note of things you learn as you go along, maybe even make a few quick recordings - from time to time review these and realise your progression, it always helped me to see in black and white how far i'd come.

Keep rocking!

All right then. I'll start saving up for that Squire pack then. Now that I know what I need, I can start aiming for it

Just make sure that you get a tuner or that one comes in the package.

Heme · 05-05-2007, 01:28 PM

Yeah, it doesn't come with one afaik, so I'll make sure to order one.

Cough Ibanez Cough
Epiphone is good too, though I haven't seen many deals.

That squire pack comes with a ton of stuff so thatd be great to start with

I miss my bass back home, actually I need a new one the neck is broke on mine.

Yeah, the Squire pack is my best bet so far, considering I get a lot for cheap. And since I'm getting 0 help from anyone, and just drained my account for a computer, I am REALLY strapped for cash
