Why did you guys start playing bass?

For me I saw a yousician ad and thought the bass looked edgy so asked my dad for one and he immediately said yes 🔥

edit: wow there is a hell lot of old people on this subbreddit and i’m loving it, i thought y’all would be talking 5-10 years ago but 25-30 years? wow, that’s amazing tbh

edit 2: wow these stories are awesome! so glad i asked this subbreddit because these are seriously interesting!
