Wow - what timing! I was just considering sending you a letter about how to start with the bass. I have been adding a few guitars to my collection and was thinking about adding a bass the next time I get the urge. To be honest, I have no idea how to go about it but this schedule is wonderful (I don't think I have ever even held a bass).
I have a few questions that may be relevant to other beginners as well.
1. I am not sure what model or make to start off with - I don't want to start off with a cheaper model (I have noticed that cheap guitars make lousy learning instruments) but something middle of the road.
2. I don't have an amp for the base but since I got my Pod Xt about 6 months ago, I have used my guitar amp for less than an hour since. I believe you can play the bass through the Pod XT but not sure.
