Hi everybody!

Those of you who have dual citizenship probably know me from the other Forum - for those who don't:

I'm a guitar player/bluegrass singer/cabinetmaker turned repairman. I've always loved DB and used to (still do, I guess) play bass at jams whenever the opportunity arose.

I see a lot of bluegrass instruments - vintage Martin guitars, old Gibson mandolins and banjos, lots of Kays but I also get my share of Czech shop basses and older instruments as my reputation grows. I'm a believer in the concept of mode-matching and think that, in general, weight is the enemy of tone.

Seeya, Jake
