How did you decide what instrument to learn?

[cool-beans]

As it is, I'm trying to decide between guitar and bass. How did you pick your instrument?

I really like both guitar and bass, but I can only afford to learn one currently. =\

My crush back then was in the guitar club. So naturally I went for the guitar.

the first time i saw a sexy electric that was on a poster, i knew that some day i have to play one. then when i was learning, i realised that the bass is much more seductive... :twisted:
WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?!?!?

 

[ngjingming]

[Godspeed64]

[AEnimic]

well, I'm interested in playing both bass and guitar...as a matter of fact, I play both..just that I tend to play more guitar.

what led me to play guitar?


urmm....y'know....that day....a pick fell from the sky...and I had to save a friend....so I had to play the best song in the world....and the only instrument that is light enough around was the guitar.

I know, I'm such a pwnz0rx.

 

[Mortichro]

if you can play the guitar.. you can play the bass..

 

[rikki]

[freakyfir]

because all my friends were picking it up in school.

 

[17wil]

because the songs i listen to are guitar-oriented. :lol:

 

[sidmontu]

because those drum grooves sounded so sexy! pick drums instead man!

oops, wrong advice?

 

[foxblinkhope]

For me, everyone I knew who was into music were all playing the guitar. I just wanted to go the other way. Bass.

And Chris Wolstenholme had a part to play in nudging to buy my first bass guitar, an Ibanez GSR-180.

Now I'm the proud owner of a Fender J Bass and a Fender P Bass.

Damn you GAS!!!!!!
