I have my own gear I have an area pro 2 4-string bass guitar. I have a really awesome 500 watt Black beauty SWR. I've been playing for 20 years since I was in high school my freshman year my first bass guitar was a squier p base. I've kind of been a black sheep where I come from as far as skill goes because I was surrounded by so many talented bass guitars that I was always trying to compete to be the best. Now that I'm not around people like that anymore I kind of realize that the motivation to push myself so hard at an early age really molded me into who I am. I joined the United States army did four years got out played bass guitar the whole time while I was in even overseas. I've always loved being around music who doesn't when you learn how to play the bass guitar and you can really hone in on your skills as far as for me I play slap and use my fingers I don't use a pic. for me it's sacrilegious to others it's like sacrilegious to use their fingers or slap so I guess you just depends on the person you're asking. I don't do drugs I don't drink I'm not going to say I don't smoke but at the moment I don't smoke. It took me a long time to quit hopefully I stay away from that stuff. I like to sing I like to play acoustic I like to play piano horrible with drums. So yeah I have a lot to tell I'm an open book.

I want to buy a larger amplifier but I'm not going to just yet until I get into a band that's serious but I definitely do want to buy a whole stack I have my mind set on a gk or mark bass amp.
