Sorry I just ruined that idea! But seriously, I'm looking forward to hanging around here. And now you all know my real name is COCO! Oh well....

Hi Ken, you were missed at NAMM show (I needed a place to stash my jacket, LOL). Actually John S. and I discussed this site so here I am! Looking forward to the spirtied yet civil discussions here.

Sorry, I didn't realise about the real name thing.
Real name = Richard Prowse.
I'll try to change it, but I'm not very good with these computer things.

Looks great Ken. Real Names!!!

[Michael Case]

Hello Ken and everyone else! It's good to see a new forum coming up. I'm also known as Mike da Mook. Here I'm mild mannered bassist Michael Case.

[Marcus Johnson]

That's one aspect of this that will take a little getting used to; reacquainting with folks we've known for a long time, now under their real names. Anyway, nice to neet you, Moo....er, Michael.

[Michael Case]

Well thank you Marcus. Nice to meet you too.

Hi Ken and some other familiar cyber-faces,

I am very glad to see this forum and am looking forward to continuing to learn from Ken and the rest of the gang. I have been a member at TB for many years, but I tend to keep a very low profile and shy away from heated discussions. It's great to have another source of knowledge.

[Don Higdon]

My real name is Ed Fuqua, but somebody else took it.

There's nobody here with that user name. Make sure that your not trying to use the same email with two accounts. If you would like me to, I can change your user name from Don Higdon to Ed Fugua. PM/email me please Ed on how you would like to do this.

For the rest of you, make sure you send name requests directly to me via pm or email.

Don, that's my son, the youngest. Mike? He's kidding! Ed is another guy from Talkbass that he's ribbing so he comes over here..

Hello, Double bass is where it's at.

[Jonathan Roberts]

Hello this is my first post and I would like jsut say thanks Ken for making great basses. I recently bought a set of pickups and a new circuit for my BsrB 6. the bass sounds amazing now and it also looks very diffferent than when I bought after I did a refinish on it. Best neck I have ever played. I will post pics soon. Thanks again Ken

[Jeff Gellis]

Hey Ken,
I speak for many in the bass community when I say congrats on your forum.

I was saddened to learn of your departure from another bass forum where your posts were informative and entertaining.

Well, I should have guessed that you had a plan of your own. As it turns out probably a real blessing that you started this forum. Good luck and thanks.

Speaking of getting work done, I just picked up my fully restored Mougenot along with its new C-extension.

Jeff, your work on this bass is beautiful. It almost looks like I did a Barbara Eden Jeannie thing and poof, Restored bass, no sign of Human involvement.


The Bass plays so easily for a big instrument. Please, find some time and say hello here once in awhile.

[Eduardo Barbosa]

This is a great forum!
I actually get some real answers from real people here!
thank you!
