Baby is due in 8 weeks. Panic has started!

Ernie Ball Stainless flats for 5 string bass - 25 squids on Amazon. And they sound marvellous.

New bass from Bass Bro's on the way 😁

£53 on Amazon/7 days to spend or loose/what bass things are worth it on there? 

Moving production to the UK! Scary stuff. But Very exciting. Meeting with Retrovibe at our premises to plan out new production facilities and workshop.  

Stolen bass... Today I was given some old gear from a coworker who sold his house and is abandoning his studio.

Among it is a hand built precision from the Netherlands. I had never heard of the builder so I searched google and found the man's Facebook page. I noticed he had 2 mutual friends. Posted him photo's of the bass asking if it is from his hand and it was indeed.

I had also posted 3 pics of it on FB, stating I was handed this bass and I did not know the brand. It did not take long for the rightful owner to recognize his custom made bass which had been stolen from his rehearsal room more then 25 years ago! He showed me pics to prove it, and some social media posts from 2017 of him searching for his lost treasure.

Today, I found him his bass and soon as I noticed it is his, I rang him up and gave him my address. Tomorrow he will pick it up. That will be quite a moment for sure!

Happy days.

Had a low profile on here recently....Mum died on 27th June following a stroke and bleed on the brain.

Her suffering has come to an end.

Just found out my aunt has died from the Corona virus...

In a slightly unplanned development I seem to have acquired my first ever five string this weekend!
