10 years ago I started out playing double bass without amplification exclusively in our Ukulele club and this worked perfectly.
As some of the music got a bit faster and fitted a bass guitar better I moved to a precision.
I also used a U-bass for a while which was great (and nice and light).
I currently use a 5 string as I occasionally need a low "D" (why are ukulele pieces transposed to crazy keys!).
Since I really only need an electric bass for a few songs I am considering going back to upright and using a u-bass for the occasional song.
What's everyone else doing?
