Post New start
Good evening!
Started to write on my vintage 10-string at last:)
I always been a bassist, but recently every free minute I get seems to draw me to this wonderful instrument... Should I be worried? :-)
My basses are getting dusty. That hasn't happened before in the last 20 or so years

Here's the first one:

Nice. That swings really well, and rhythmically it's really catchy. I liked how you played "across the board," so to speak. I saw Andy mentioning in his YouTube comment that you're using a new tuning; I'd bet this piece grew straight out of it.
That's a keeper!

That was great! Loved it. Couldn't help my foot tapping and head bopping along. I can understand, after seeing that, why your basses are collecting dust in the corner.

That was great plus there's no head in the video to distract us with your good looks. ;)

Excellent first effort - great to see how your hands move so freely across the grid of strings. Looking forward to more Bengt
