It's a beauty, and it looks much better in person.

I don't have a proper amp so I'm playing it through a little Roland Cube monitor. I can find my way around it from years of guitar, but I have no real bass skills. I really don't deserve a nice bass like this.

The "A" buzzes pretty good if I play it even medium hard. Minor adjustment I'm thinking. Sending any instrument up to 7000 feet in the dead of winter is going to mess with it I think.

I'll get some proper photos soon.

I've been thinking about a small combo. I've no need for anything big, but I might try accompanying another local acoustic songwriter at a coffee shop for fun. Carvin has something called a BR-15 for what seems a very reasonable price. Any ideas if that would be a reasonable first amp? I will likely record direct, but I don't like practicing with headphones.

Ken, I'm sure you know this, but you make nice instruments!

Cheers,
Chuck
