Hello everybody

I'm Walt, born and raised in a small town next to Brussels (Belgium). I don't play or own a bass at the moment but I'm looking around to buy me one (and start playing of course).
I used to play the french horn but due to a throat operation, I'm no longer able to do so. But I do like to play an instrument so I've been looking around some and ended up deciding that my next instrument will be a bassguitar. It's the instrument I always wanted to play when I was in my teens but never got around to it. Until now :-)
I'm thinking about buying me a Harley Benton and was very pleasantly surprised that there is an actual club of owners on this forum. I've been reading that topic for the last few days and I still have a long read ahead of me but the topic is packed with good information and advice. Kudo's for that :thumbsup:
