Paul Seager Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Hi, I'm an British ex-pat, living 25 years in South Germany (Augsburg). Been playing on and off over 40+ years as work / family allows. I started on upright about a year ago mainly to get that off my bucket list. It's been a hard transition but fulfilling because, for the first time, I've taken tuition. I also play and adore steel guitar (not the one with pedals) I play in a duo (bass & sax + our 2 voices), a jazz -guitar trio that keeps to the tradition of never being able to find the right direction(or gigs) and various bands that form when someone has a gig, agree a set over email and then play without rehearsal. I play steel in a tex-mex / western swing band. I'm a regular at local jazz, blues and Western Swing sessions. Gear: I have an Antoria White Eagle, Fender(s) Jazz and Precision, a Sei Flamboyant 6 and an Aria acoustic bass-guitar which I am curiously fond of. My upright is built in Romania, of all hard wood and fitted with a Shadow pick-up. My steel guitar is a 1956 Rickenbacker twin 8 string. I have a Mark Bass combo for gigs and a Phil Jones practice amp. I have an embarrassing number of effects pedals that I consistently and convincingly tell myself I need. Looking forward to interactions! \ paul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowEagle Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Hi from another Antoria White Eagle owner. That now makes 3 owners that I am aware of, Jon Camp, formerly of Renaissance and Roy Wood's Helicopters had (or maybe still has) one. Interestingly, his has a black headstock.
