:D hi there everybody, god i sound like Dr Nick of the Simpsons. Anyway, just thought i'd introduce myself as a newbie to the site, all the way from the U.K. Been playing bass since the early 90's and consider Steve Harris and Cliff Burton as my main influences. i have only recently just got a graphite finish on my "alleged" 79' P-bass with all new pick-ups and mirrored scratchplate, i say alleged as it only cost £400 in 1999 which is about $800 so i have reservations put it plays like a dream and wouln't swap for the world. i also have a P-bass copy in black with the same modifications as above but am getting a birdseye maple neck made for me to order which i am excited about. Anyway, hope to speak to you's all soon and hope you've all had a happy new year.

Thakx for the welcome ZOD. There is a pic of it on my myspace account myspace.com/michaelspark7. i would have it on here but i have no idea how to upload it and use it as an avatar. I run it through a Trace Elliot (vinyl covering), i think it's 100 watts but i'll have to check and i also use a Vox wah and a Marshall Jackhammer pedal occasionally. What's you set up like and what style do you play?

Welcome to the Forum. I too consider 'Arrie and Cliff Burton an influence.
