throwoff

I would buy one. Except I probably wouldn't.

Good show dropping by. Now make some lefties!

Why did the font keep changing for the first 4 or 5 posts? I actually cant read it!

I wouldnt touch it, looks like one of two things, half inched from the factory or perhaps (more worringly for a player) a reject from the production line.

This is going to be epic. My old man and brother (both guitarists) are coming as well just to see a room full of lefties! Does anyone know a close hotel (ideally walking distance) I might stay up the night and enjoy a drink.

Bang a sticker over it. Done.

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1327459063' post='1511719'] Yes... but the amount of tropical woods used by independent specialist luthiers for bass guitars is nothing compared to that imported by the USA (for example) for furniture and other purposes.

Jens is a cool dude

Can of worms reopens once more! This thread pops up every now and then and usually results in 50% of people saying its a waste of time and nobody becomes musicians from courses and 50% saying its a great idea and to follow your dreams. Personally I did a music degree and now work in the industry (not playing admitedly but where I want to be) I accomplished this by following 2 paths. Firstly I did my degree and worked hard. Secondly I worked every other hour god sent in menial jobs, barman at a football ground when at uni then every summer and winter for the time I was a student (literally finishing a term on the friday, driving home and being at work at 8am on the saturday all through the summer and winter, full time, 40 hour weeks) as a phone debt collection specialist, yep cold calling people who missed credit payments from 8am to 9pm! I got next to nothing in the way of loans because of the crooked system that is means assessment (but thats for another thread!) and needed the money for things like rent and keep (trust me when I say in the 3 years I spent at uni I could count the 'messy nights out' I had on my 20 fingers and toes and have enough left over to do the song about the little piggy who stayed at home) but the fact when I left employers saw that I had a sum total of over 16 months proper full time work behind me as well as 3 years part time! I pretty much walked into a job because I understood work, had my degree with a good grade and because of that combined was attractive to employers. A student who understands the value of a hard days work. This first job was not in the music industry but for a hifi company and I used my call centre experience to get an ok wage. Did this for a year, my first music job came up and that was that, believe it or not even in the music industry a work ethic is bloody essential (forgetting the 9 months in the middle of the period between then and now when I worked for a hazourdous waste company in their accounts department, such is music you never know!) Long and short is you can make it if its what you put your heart and soul into, but be prepared to always go the extra mile. I could name a lot of uni friends who spent 3 years getting hammered on the tax payers expense and hadn't done a days work from birth, they left uni with a 2.1 or even first. They are still unemployed because their sights are too high and their experience is too low (one person in particular who ticked all those boxes still doesnt work and wont apply for a job under 30k, after all they have a first.......)

They are mind blowingly good cabs, the heads are just as superb. I have had the chance several times to play very loud through them and they really do sound the way warwick describe, you lose nothing in the way of high clarity by using 15's and you get such clear present tone.

I sent an offer, still waiting
