Professional Bass worker?

[nickname500]

hello,

I would like to pursue a career in bass building. Everything from Amp head working, to bass cabinet making, to bass guitar making, effects, and so on and so forth.

unfortunately, I really have no experience with any of this. The only sensible plan would be to learn about electronics (take electrical engineering in college), and work my way from there.

Can anybody suggests ways to learn about these things? Any college classes to take? Is there shop in college?
Please Help
thank you

Most of the workers who build amps are not engineers, though many are highly skilled electronics assembly workers.

Getting a job in a factory building anything (except chicken parts) in N. America is pretty much impossible. It is probably easier to find some place hiring engineers.

find the vo-tech school in your area. get an elec ed certificate. i have one that i got for computer networking. it's great.

next, work at a music store. buy broken stuff at pawn shops, fix it. be 'the guy' that everyone in town goes to for getting thigns fixed.

just dive into it. maybe a few college classes in business.
