Hi there,
I have a Pono AT with a Fishman Isys pickup that I'm thinking about selling or trading. At first a baritone made sense but the bass is just sexy - and I like sexy!
Can the bass players out there tell me about the bass ukulele? Questions I have are:
Do I have to learn new chords?
Is there much solo music or is it almost all done to accompany others?
Are there a lot of tabs/music online at all?
I assume I'd go fretted. Is that easier?
Can I use my Roland Cube (not microcube) amp or do I need a Bass Amp? Would something like a Fishman Loudbox work?
What was your bass journey like, especially if you were not a bass player of any kind before?
Is it realistic to ask someone to trade a bass for a Pono tenor?
Clearly I'm just looking at this on a whim but I like the idea. Any feedback is appreciated!
