Welcome to The Fret, pic!
Good to have some more Texans aboard.
Hey everyone. After checking out the forum for a while I went ahead and joined and stopped in here to say Hi and introduce myself.
My handle is pictoratus but most people use pic since it's shorter and I've been playing 6 string for what will be 1 year next month. I'm not exactly a noob; I played bass in a couple of local bands but that was about 25 years ago. Don't remember a whole lot but it seems to be coming back.
My gear right now is a Peavey Generation EXP Triple Single, a Squier Strat SE, and a Kay short scale bass built around 1970 or so that is in the process of being rebuilt. I play the Peavey more than the Squier. My amp is a Fender Mustang I that I just got a few weeks ago. I'm also teaching myself Home Recording while I'm learning guitar so I'm always on the lookout for tips and tutorials. I've been using Reaper for recording lately. I tried a few other DAWs including Ableton which came with my amp but Reaper seems to suit me well.
Ok, enough jabbering. Looking forward to learning and contributing.

Hi Pictoratus! Welcome to the group.
The Law of Gravity is nonsense. No such law exists. If I think I float, and you think I float, then it happens.

Thanks Monkus. And thanks for the comment on my backer.
deeaa, from reading the forum it looks like you're the man to ask about all things recording. I'm a beginner so I'll probably have questions!
Welcome Pic! But that gear you mentioned does not exist--- without PICS!
See wot I did there?
