Tommy Plays Bass

I started playing bass at 16 when the bassplayer in my friends band quit and got talked into giving it a try. I remember that one note at a time with no fills or thrills. The best thing I learned was to have feeling and try to have a groove. I think that's more important anyway. I played wih a pick till I saw the Jaco video. That was the last time I used a pick. Man what a monster player and writer he was. I was a working bassist till the late 90's when a career change took me away and I do it as a hobby now. I use only schroeder cabs and thunderfunk amps. I've got to say their's some great bassplayers on here all over the world. I'm just your average rock bassist having fun. Thanks for stopping by and having a look. Tommy
