    I am moving from Oregon to NYC for grad school and am trying to figure out the best way to move with my upright bass. I don't have a flight case and don't want to buy one because I will be in a tiny apartment. I can't rent one because it's a one-way trip. That kind of leaves out flying. Is...

    Any lefty friendly music stores in Portland Oregon?

    I'm in Portland for almost 3 weeks visiting family, and I was wondering if there are any music stores where I could expect to find lefty basses. Honestly, even a single bass would be worth the trip, considering it's basically impossible to find them at home.
