janmaat Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 Hello, I just joined the forum so here's my introduction. I'm born in Hamburg and lived in Berlin. I've been playing various instruments there, mainly sitar (!) in a 5-piece. Now in 2005 i came to the UK and was busking using a squeeze box. I started building skiffle basses for folks to accompany me. Now I ended up playing one in a band myself. I found a carpenter who build the bucket bass I'm playing now. And only recently have I been given a bull fiddle that I much enjoy. Now I also have a bass guitar. That's about it... There is more on the home made bass here: [url="http://bucketbass.com/"]http://bucketbass.com/[/url] and some recordings, all done with the thing here: [url="http://lonesomecowboysfromhell.com/"]http://lonesomecowboysfromhell.com/[/url] all right, see you around thanks for having me Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
