As a child I played on the harmonium. With 16 I bought me an acoustic guitar. But my priority was not set to study music.
I was more interested in building transistor amplifiers and HiFi cabinets, hi hi.
But about 20 years later, I bought a cheap bass guitar and that changed it all. Musicians in my neighborhood heard about me and invited me to play in their rock band. :-)
But the technical part of an instrument and amplifiers had my attention too.
Soon I decided to build my own bass guitar. I kept the neck of the old bass.
I home crafted this, solid hard wood body with active EMG pickup's. I still use it beside my GL L2000.
The following years I played in several bands and we had our local gigs.
"TestCees" 1996.
"Big Surprice" 2004.
"The Bluestalkers" in 2006.
"4DO" in 2009.
"Saturday Afternoon" 2015.
"GreySix" in 2015.
"JarCity" our current band. 2021
