Now that's over with, I can introduce myself properly. My name is Paulien van Mourik, from the Netherlands. I joined because I read at the Talk Bass forum that this is an excellent forum 
I'm 17 years old, and just started playing DB three months ago. Before that I played the flute for seven years, and I have to admit, I like DB better already. I play in a youth orchestra, which asked me to make the switch to DB.
As I'm still learning much every day about basses and even strings, I'm hoping to learn more from you guys.
Maybe one day, I'll be as good as you are. And then maybe I might be able to buy a Smith bass!

Being that you are one of the few Female members here let me say hello personally. We do have a few other ladies here but they seldom post. I don't know why that is but our gentlemen here I am sure will welcome your presence as well.
I see that you are only 17 but let me assure you that is perfectly ok here. My son Mike who will turn 19 in about a month was only 16 three years ago when he created this Forum, all by himself. I just guided him here and there as to what subject were needed and the titles. The rest is all him.. So 17 is fine being that a 16 year old created this place..
