additional question regarding drone reeds
OK.........the answer to this is no doubt buried in the old threads and I just can't find it: My bass drone plays very sharp, no matter what I do. I have pulled the slides as far as possible. I have added a small lump of sticky wax to slow it down. to no avail...... I pulled the bridle back onto the...

chinese UPs:?
Are the Chinese making UPs yet? If not I wonder why........they make shoes, watches, cameras, violins, guitars and everything else by the billions.....wait till they catch on UPs and everyone will have a set in their car.... The honest truth however, is that their UPs would probably be a lot better ...

further posture questions
OK, while we are at it........I have regs on the way from CJ Dixon, and when I sit down to play I can't imagine that I will be able to hit the keys with the mainstock, etc where it is right now......seems to be way too far off to the right. Can this be caused by a too-long neck on the bag leading to...

how I started (late)
Although primarily a GHBer you might find this interesting. My Dad was in a howitzer battery in Europe in WWII and his battery was watched over by a bunch of Highlanders, who set up a perimeter defense around the battery and traveled with it. They carried a piper around who did his duty every sunup,...

finally, a valve that works
OK......after trying several leathers in my bellows, all leaking and all to no avail, I hit upon this......... I took out the ebony valve-plug from the side of the bellow and removed all the old valve and hemp, and carefully "faced" the valve surface with a fine diamond stone. I suppose so...

And when you get done with your first couple of sets this week, maybe you can take on the family dental work, after all, the dentist just drills a bit and fills up the empty spots. No problem!

After a decade of family debate, two months of packing and a taste of hell in the process, several long drives and major expense we have relocated our home and business from Iron River, Michigan to Ponchatoula/Hammond, Louisiana. One reason we did this was to put the business where there were number...
