bouvier Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Hi to all, I joined Basschat quite some ago and never got round to introducing myself. Well it is now time to put that right.. I first picked up a bass in the late 70s and was soon playing in a school/college band. I can remember my first bass was a red Vox short scale thing that eventually gave up the ghost and my Dad bought me an Eros Jazz Copy which I painted black with electric blue stripe (I think we all did something like that). This bass was lent to friend whilst I was in Germany who then sold the bass and my very much missed Selmer 50 Treble & Bass. Needless to say he is not a friend any longer. Fast forward 30 years I got a Precision Deluxe from a mate and I started playing again (albeit very badly) I also bought a Telecaster so I could annoy the neighbours on all levels. Went through a phase of intense buying and now have some really nice guitars both bass and lead plus more pedals than is really healthy. What I really need now is talent. Well that's me fast approaching 48, then 49 and then does it go higher...? And if anyone is interested why Bouvier well its nothing to do with the Simpsons or The Kennedies it was Lennox my Bouvier Des Flanders he looked like a Rottweiller with Dreadlocks or Tina Turner on a bad hair day.
