Still have my bass & picked up an acoustic just before COVID arrived. Play for my own enjoyment.

Have a small amp for the bass that I'll play alongside what's in the Player. It's hollow body so I can "doodle along" without the amp most of the times but I do love "plugging" it in,

Love the bass.

Bass is different from guitar?

completely a different animal - it's part of the rythm section rather then the lead - should compliment the drums - although McCartney sort of charted a new role for it - difficult to sing lead or harmony when playing - takes a lot of practice

I've been playing guitar since the late 1960's. Playing bass began shorty thereafter. Played in & out of several bands up until mid 80's - kept with the bass all along to keep myself entertained & then repurchased an acoustic intending to relearn that.

Where is this going & why are you so interested?
