I play both upright bass, 5 years, and bass guitar, 2 years, and am well versed in a lot of different genres. I play in both my schools Jazz band and Orchestra, and outside of school, I play rock, metal, some folk, and jazz too. Unlike alot of bass players you might find, I'm pretty well versed in music theory, I know all the basic scales, minor, major, pentatonic and blues, and I'm pretty good with my chords as well. I'm very versatile, and pick things up quick, so I can adapt to just about every playig style for any genre you may need. I can play fingerstyle, with a pick, and slap a little, as well as upright bass.

If we're playing jazz or blues or something calm and slow, I can be really quiet and slow right along with it. But if we're playing fast rock, or metal, I can jump around and wear people out. It all depends. Regardless, however, my music playing would be the same either way, in key and in time.
I'm a 16 year old sophomore at Noblesville Highschool. I play in our Orchestra and Jazz Band, as well as some intramural side projects with some other students. I'm an Eagle scout in troop 183, and a triplet with two sisters. I do have school, so 7-3 on most weekdays I won't be contactable, but otherwise I can be reached at any reasonable hour. I check my email atleast twice a day, if you would rather take that route.
I can read music, so anything you put in front of me, I can play. I can also jam in any key signature or chord(s) you give me. anything you'd like me to learn, just give me a few days notice and I could pick up just about anything reasonable.
Jaco Pastorius, Victor Wooten, Alex Webster, Flea, and Stuart Hamm are my top 5 bass players.
