Hello Everyone ,

Just Jioned here and I am having a lot of fun checking out all the posts .

About me , I am a full-time instrument maker ( Luthier ) and I specialize in bass guitars . If anyone would like to know more please feel free to contact me . I am especially interested in meeting people in the Dallas area as well as Ohio where I will be moving my operations in June .

Thanks for such a great forum ,

Hi Pete

Welcome aboard! I live in southern Ohio. Luthiery is on my list. I focus on furniture but I've been wanting to try my hand at building a guitar. A friend of mine builds mandolins and has been talking to me about it.

Very cool , I plan on hosting get-togethers for my customers but all who have interest are welcome . I will be living in Nellie Village just outside of Warsaw . I love furniture too and I hope to add that to my project list .

Welcome, Pete. And there are actually a number of folks here that play bass, either for real or at sometime in the past 'cause somebody needed to do it... LOL

There's a great lumber place (Brenneman Lumber, 740-397-0573) about 20-30 mi west of where you'll be. I just bought some beech from them.

Welcome Pete. Good to have you here, even if you are from the otherside of the metroplex! Jim.

I like to eat bass but I dunno about fish guitars.

Welcome to the Creek Pete! I'm an old 60's rocker. I'm sitting here looking at my Fender Power Jazz bass. Since going deaf in my right ear, I don't play much anymore. Scared of damaging what hearing I have left.
