Sté Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 Hi all I'm from south France, play bass since 15 years. Mostly jazz, jazz funk, jazz rock, latin jazz, electrojazz ... Anything with "jazz" into , and few rock too. I also play guitar, mostly acoustic one, with singing a little bit. My basses are a 4 string fretted Jazzbass copy I made during a luthe-making course; and another 4 strings fretted Ken Smith burner from 98'; plugged in a GK 700RbII through a GK NEO 115-III cab. Sometimes a dunlop Wha between basses and amp. I also play sometimes a Squier jazzbass, which is my wife one. Happy to discover this forum ! Quote
Truckstop Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 Welcome Ste! Any pictures of your homemade bass? Sounds interesting!! Alex Quote
Sté Posted September 4, 2012 Author Posted September 4, 2012 Thank you Alex. it's not a homemade bass, but a bass i made with a luthier during a luthe-making course he setted up. his name is Xavier Petit, in France. all details of my adventure here: [url="http://www.myspace.com/basste3/blog/307080427"]http://www.myspace.com/basste3/blog/307080427[/url] and here is the next evolution (head shape, pickups, ramp,..)

BassTractor Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 Bienvenu, Sté! I hope you will enjoy the site. Your bass looks great from here. Yes, it's a homemade bass, not because you built it at home, but because you built it yourself rather than buying it in a shop. best regards, bert Quote
Sté Posted September 4, 2012 Author Posted September 4, 2012 (edited) So, ok for the homemade Thanks bert ! Edited September 4, 2012 by Sté Quote
alyctes Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 welcome aboard It's a great place. But I recommend you stay out of the Marketplace, that can get expensive Quote
lowdowner Posted September 5, 2012 Posted September 5, 2012 Good looking bass - how does it play? Welcome to the forums Quote
Sté Posted September 5, 2012 Author Posted September 5, 2012 Thank you all. About the marketplace, i'm done with gas. well... i hope And the bass plays very well. Not the amazing playing of the Ks, but at least a very good jazz. Quote
