How long have you been playing?
I've played for approximately one year. I take lessons with my awesome teacher, who freely swears (quite profanely) in front of me, and gets calls from people who want to book him right in the middle of our lesson.

What model bass do you have?
I have two basses. One is a crappy black Yamaha that is coated with decals (it sound so spiffy though....) and the other is a black Squire with Badtz Maru on it. It has a kinda short neck. Or maybe the other one has a long neck...

Preferred method of playing?
Erm....plucking the strings...? Is there any other way of playing?

Personal Influences?

They're called the Golden Oldies baby!!! 4laugh I don't like any particular bands, but I like certain songs. Here are some examples:
1) White Room
2) Time Bomb (it's not that old, but still!)
3) Glycerine
Yeah.....my fave new band is WolfMother.

Favored Bassist/Idol Bassist?
I don't do Idolization

Any thing you'd like to add?
Yup! Anyone who wants to talk or trade can PM me! I'm currently questing for Winged Anklets, and Staff of the Angels, so if you have one of the above, please PM me and we can set up a trade.

Also, I love RPing. PM me for details 3nodding
