I have been reading the many informative post on this forum and need to get involved. I play bass in a variety of different styles. I play in a Jamband Fourpeace and enjoy the inprov and music with my friends. I also work with Peter Ferreira a Classical violinist. My wife is also A talented singer and songwriter that I can best descibe as New age. My real gig is as a music teacher in a urban public school. I studied double bass with Robert Black at uconn.

I play both upright and Bass guitar. I seen the practice more on the upright but gig with the electric. What brings me to this forum is my passion for building and reapairing things. I have built speaker cabs and bikes. I ejoy reparing thing such as guitars, tube amps, and all sorts of broken music gear. (after recent a car wreck I have some more repairs speakers mic drum hardware) I have also done some instrument restorations (Gretch 6118, cello, school violins) and am begining a new one.

Good to meet all of you.
Ben
