The bass is named Baby; the cat is named Numbra. Baby is a 1998 Fender Standard P-Bass, and she's gorgeous. :D
Fingering exercises, though, are of the Devil. Crap, I've never actually wanted bigger hands before-- how do short/petite girls actually play the bass? Cause I gotta tell you, I'm a tall chick, and I'm barely able to cover one fret per finger with my hand stretched out to the max.
Also? My left hand is not used to moving like that. OW.
baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaby. :DDD
