Thank you Ed. Sage advice. John

Thanks to everybody that responded. It's been great to be able to read the various perspectives. I've been given some great ideas and some food for thought. Thanks for sharing the names of some of the teachers who you have loved working with. I really appreciate that kind of information. I am...

Hello all, Not sure if this is the correct forum for this post. Please let me know if I should move this somewhere else. I've been playing double bass for a couple of years after having set down my electric bass about 20 years ago. I'm really excited to be playing with people and building my...

Very interesting. Thank you.

Thank you Leonard! These are great sites. I appreciate you pointing these items out to me. I'll look around.

Thank you Eric. This is a great list. I'll start keeping track of this in my notebook. John

Thanks Arto. Sorry for the delayed reply. I'm glad to hear that Finland hasn't been hit too hard. We are starting to normalize here on the North West coast of the US as more folks become vaccinated. Live music is now starting again and I'm excited to start playing with everybody. I'll be sure...

Hi Reiska, Good idea. I've sent them an email. I appreciate the link. John

Thank you Juusokasperi. I appreciate the welcome :-). I hope that all of you in Finland are doing okay under the current circumstances. John

Thank you for the welcome and the pointer to "suomen kontrabassoklubi ry" Reiska. I'm not currently on Facebook but I guess I better make the jump since I really do hope to make some friends and play some music while I'm in Finland. I have some distant relatives who live in Finland so I hope...
