Don't exactly have anything to "show" but I've got something to tell I've been in college for a month now and I've join nearly all of my schools ensembles including both choirs, orchestra, and jazz improv playing bass in both. I have my first concert for orchestra this Friday and I've got a little bit of jitters. Im playing the upright bass for 2 songs and its still an instrument that's a little new to me and then my Jackson bass for 1 song. Just kind of wanted to share and see what some of you do before a performance and help cool you down.

Bought a Gretsch Rancher Jr acoustic-Electric this evening. As stated in a previous post I was looking for something solid that I could gig with. Was pleased with how full bodied this thing sounds. The neck feels more like an electric. Big enough to make a huge sound but small enough not to be cumbersome. I love my ‘64 Epiphone Texan but it’s a big guitar. My case reminds me of a cello case. This is a lot easier to handle. Great sounding pickup. It has a Fishman preamp in it. Great looking and sounding guitar. From the Thumbnail markers, the stock locking strap buttons, triangular sound hole and steer logo. This thing is a sharp. Total eye catcher

well if youve read before i have like a sticker addiction..i got this set frim Temu and decided to put on my 5150 cab..what you think?

So I took some time during this morning to change out my strings and put on some lemon oil on the fingerboard on my acoustic Yamaha guitar 🍋 I cleaned it up as well because there was a lot of dirt in between the strings and frets here and there There's something about a fresh set of strings, both on electric and acoustic, I think, that feels so great. You just get a clear, loud and powerful sound from the strings 💯 Do you often change strings? 🎸

My band is working on a cover of electric funeral. I apologize for the rough mix, this was recorded live in our rehearsal space so it’s far from perfect. We tried to make it our own a little while still paying our respects to the original. Let me know what you think!
