NDBD - and a new chapter!

[Homatron]

I've been dreaming of picking up the double bass for a long time, but had been writing it off for various reasons. So imagine my surprise when my wife organised this for a big birthday this week!

 

 

Currently renting for a few months to see if we can live with it, but I now can't imagine a world without DB... it's so addictive and rewarding!

 

It seems playing cello as a kid, and fretless bass for a long time has helped get me started, but there's so much to learn!

There's nothing like it. Enjoy!

That’s a great birthday present. Go Mrs Homatron! Enjoy.

Now that's a lovely present! Any bass is a journey of a lifetime. I see you have many songbooks made out of glass, the start is most likely pretty easy.

Thanks @itu, I'm definitely seeing this as a lifelong journey, and will take my inspiration from all sorts of vessels 😉
