Hi from another old guy (and ex-pat)

Hi, I'm an British ex-pat, living 25 years in South Germany (Augsburg). Been playing on and off over 40+ years as work / family allows.  I started on upright about a year ago mainly to get that off my bucket list. It's been a hard transition but fulfilling because, for the first time, I've taken tuition. I also play and adore steel guitar (not the one with pedals) 

I play in a duo (bass & sax + our 2 voices), a jazz -guitar trio that keeps to the tradition of never being able to find the right direction(or gigs) and various bands that form when someone has a gig, agree a set over email and then play without rehearsal. I play steel in a tex-mex / western swing band. I'm a regular at local jazz, blues and Western Swing sessions. 

Gear: I have an Antoria White Eagle, Fender(s) Jazz and Precision, a Sei Flamboyant 6 and an Aria acoustic bass-guitar which I am curiously fond of.  My upright is built in Romania, of all hard wood and fitted with a Shadow pick-up. My steel guitar is a 1956 Rickenbacker twin 8 string.  I have a Mark Bass combo for gigs and a Phil Jones practice amp. I have an embarrassing number of effects pedals that I consistently and convincingly tell myself I need.  

Looking forward to interactions!
