Where would you be?

This is the thread where YOU, can tell everyone where you think you would be with your bass playing, without this bass forum.

I'll start by saying that I definetaly(s/p?) wouldn't be as skilled, nor would I have an ERB.

I would probably have the same level of playing, but I wouldn't know shit about amps, basses, other equipment, artists, etc.

I wouldn't be as open to various genres of music and know different bassists. I also would not be as far as I am with skills because of different tips on pretty much everything.
And i wouldn't know crap about gear, and different things about basses (neck thru, pickups, etc)

Plus, I wouldn't know as many cool bassists

I wouldn't listen to Wooten because I would still think he was a guitarist that used 4 strings.

I'd still think Flea was the fecal matter of all bassist.

I wouldnt know how to slap/pop/tap/harmonic/..i wouldnt know about anything except fingerstyle.

I wouldn't know that the "dude from RUSH" (yeah, i know his names geddy lee) was regarded as a top bassist.

I..would...probably get more homework done.

Eh...I'd probably be better than I really am because I'd actually be practising instead of sitting on here. Well, I don't know since my bass is always at my guitarist's house because of transportation issues.

I'd probably study theory more than I'd ever need to, which is what I used to do even while I was on this site.

I probably wouldn't know all that much about equipment.




So, pretty much, I just wouldn't know much on equipment.

Outside. Seriously... that's not a joke.

I'd probably be your generic speed finger rock bassist with no musical knowledge and simply a mindless shredder. I say that because I'd just be hitting notes and not know what I was doing...
