something new
On Friday evening I bought this bass, something I had been thinking of getting for some time. I want to learn out of the simple desire to play, and also because it will be useful in teaching my jazz classes. It is a very nice instrument, a Fender jazz bass with a maple body, much more distinctive than the usual black or white versions. I have been practicing. Since I already play the guitar -- though I am not an expert -- the bass is already familiar. The neck is longer than that of a guitar and so there is more of a stretch required. This will be good for my extension (for piano) as well. I love buying instruments.
