I played bass actively for 25 years. Have played chords on bass also.
One fellow said once, when you play bass, I hear God talking to me through your music because you make your bass talk. That is quite a anointing.
In brief, my first bass was used as a heavy metal artist so asked the Lord by faith for a new bass. 3 month later after asking was looking for a job. The call came from a place that owned a music shop. My co. discount caused me to pay for the amp and case. The Aria pro 2 precision bass was free. A few years later was working in another state and a fellow said his dad who was in prison, but had bought him a bass, so couldn't teach him any more. He was
a fellow I was sharing Jesus with and also my music. He gave me his whole package for free.
Peavey amp, very expensive hard shell case, strings, fender tuner, strap, and Alverez 5 string bass. red with brass knobs. electric boost inside back.
My six string Dillion is like a Ovation. Once I fix the bridge on my 12 string will use it again.
Just copy righted 7 country gospel songs. Have to slow down, so get the lyrics memo down pat. As it is, am memorizing scripture at a speed beyond your imagination.
If it helps someone, drugs mess up your head and God is healing mine. Take care of that precious gift from God it is a mega great machine. I repeat God is healing mine.
