Introduction

[vejesse]

Hi, my name is Vince Jesse. I've been hanging around the double bass repair forum for a while but I've checked the bass guitar side out and I'd like to introduce myself. I have an upright bass workshop in Madison, Wi but I've worked on guitars for years. I have experience with setup work and I could probably answer some questions if I get the time.

On behalf of slacking slabbers & iffy doghousists(I am mediocre but loud on either ), thank you for joining us. Looking forward to any contributions you can make.

Nice to hear from ya Vince, welcome to the Bass Guitar side of the forums.

Maybe I'll take a trip up north one of these days and pay a visit to your shop, do you only take appointments or is your shop more of an open house?

[vejesse]

I like to work by appointment but I'm around the shop a lot.

There's a great used gear store down the street that's worth the trip if you happen to be in town. The Guitar Shop at 2215 Atwood Avenue in Madison.

Xylem - Do you know any of the Lakland people? I worked there briefly.

Cool, I'll maybe give you a ring one of these days and check out your place if it's not too much trouble for you.

I know a lot of guys who love Laklands, but I don't think I have met with any of the pros there.

It's possible that I have met some of the guys outside of the context of Lakland and didn't know who they were when I talked to them...
