And figured this would be a good place to ask how people got their start/ any suggestions on equipment, books, etc.
I've been playing drums about 5 years (w/ lessons) and I take a guitar class in school, but every time I pick up a bass I just feel the need to play the hell out of it, even though I might suck while doing it. Anyway, can't control this any longer and I've finally got some money.
So what do you guys suggest I buy for a decent low-end price/quality bass (and should I buy an amp too?) I'm already in a pretty solid band where I play drums, so that's most likely always going to be my primary instrument, which is why I don't need an extremely high-quality bass or anything like that.
Thanks for any advice.
