Bought a bass instead of the ps5. Fuck it lol. It was half the price.

You're inspiring me (never played bass guitar before but it's on my bucket list)

[–] Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It's a hell of a lot of fun!!! I play bass like a guitarist, not a real bass player, but it's fun as fuck lol

Love it.

I have my dad's old electric guitar and am considering taking lessons and buying an amp for it. Maybe then I shall get a bass.

There's an app called yousician which is nice for starting out.

Or a website called "Justin's guitar".

Very nice!

I didn’t get to ask the other day but maybe you can layer a bass track under your guitar?

I don’t know how it would sound though if you did that.

That's what I'm thinking as well. But it's going to require using my laptop on stage.

That will require significant testing to ensure it doesn't crash.

Oh bugger. More equipment for you lug around as well if that’s the case.

I'm going to try with the ipad. Because it would give me drums as well and is much more reliable.
