    Would like to rent a double bass in the Naples/Fort Myers, FL area from an TBDBer or a reputable shop.

    It would be lovingly played, handled, and looked after by me personally at this show on Jan.16 & 17. It's so hard to fly w/ a DB these days and I really rather not use an EUB for this trip. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Now see there is a gig you need to send a sub to. Like a fat cold midwesterner with a taste for Key Lime Pie. You won't have to worry about that bass thing at all then.

    You had your fun in the sun, Pieboy. Besides I don't think we'll have time enough for even a dip in the pool :rollno:.

    I feel like sending a sub, now. Look at what I just noticed on their website. This is what they have planned for us to do on our "morning off". Nobody discussed it w/ us...

    Hi Brian,

    I've got a couple of basses that you could use. One is a Meisel laminate and the other is a carved Sunrise Del Mar. Both are strung with Spiro Weichs. I am about 30 miles east of Fort Myers on SR80. Send me a PM if you are interested. These basses are certainly not Prescotts, but should get the job done

    Hey I'm thankful and humbled by ANY gig date that has a prefix of Jan. or Feb. in front of it, but I'd certainly trade 'em for a Hawaiin cruise any day.

    Jim, THNX!! I'm sending you a PM,
    BG
