If it ' s any solice , remember that even though your child was only around for a short time , he knew love . <| sep |> It ' s all good , hope I didn ' t come across as a dick <| sep |> Thanks for both the suggestions for the Squier and the Ibanez , and the explaination of a beater thats how new i am to this . I used to play Drums and lost the jist of that , hence why im trying another mostly rythmic instrument . My first bass won ' t be a top of the line quality thing i expect a bit of a physical barier to what i am able to do . But when it catches on , and i really want to get into it , of course i ' ll be getting something allong the lines of $ 6700 , but only when the time is right . Again , thanks for the comment mate . Always nice to have some experienced guys run me through this
