mrbacco Posted August 28, 2023 Posted August 28, 2023 (edited) Ciao from Ireland and from me, mrbacco. An avid italian learner and experimenter. I have been playing drums since I was 16 (on and off), and bass since I was 42 (i.e. for 7 years now). I am intrigue by the fat, low, and rounded sound of the electric bass, and I love playing mine not only for my behavioural activation excercises 🙂. I am also a maker, so I decided a few weeks ago to start assembling my own bass, and I will keep you posted with my achievements (if any) and learning curve, for sure, and on this platform. I apologize in advance to any luthier here present if I seem to try to unflatteringly emulate your art-work. Thanks for sharing a wide amount of knowledge here. Also: anyone can point me to a thread here (if it exists) of mounting a left handed neck on a right hand bass, please? Edited August 28, 2023 by mrbacco 2 Quote

Richard R Posted August 30, 2023 Posted August 30, 2023 Welcome aboard! The build diaries forum is fantastic. Start a new thread about your build and asking questions - the local geniuses and wood-whisperers such as @Jabba_the_gut and @Andyjr1515 will then magically appear with sage advice. 3 Quote
