New Fender P Bass!

[Avalon]

I ordered one of these recently and I was wondering how it plays and if its a good bass. I expect so, since its been around (this is the standard P by the way) for a while, and most stuff Fender makes is good quality.

I already have a Squier Strat w/ a Fender Frontman 15 amp and a Fender DC-20CE acoustic. I'm not as high tech with all the equipment as some of the guys on here, but that I have does fine for me! Right now I am learning to play the guitar. I can play some simple songs pretty well, but nothing extravagant. I am also very excited about my new bass because I will be learning to play that too.

I am 14 years old and I live in Virginia, USA.

That's just to let you know a little bit about me.

Welcome!

I hope you'll like exploring the wonderful world of creating music. Playing the bass can be a wonderful way into the music for two reasons:

- More people play the guitar, so if you're good at bass it's easier to find a band

- In a typical band the drums keep the pace, the guitars do the solos and the bass plays the song ;)
