I guess it’s no secret that I love my Schack Guitars basses and the guys who build them. Since 1992, when I got my first Schack Guitars bass, I’ve checked out many basses made by other great luthiers and companies, but none of them made me want to switch over. I’m sure that our 22Continue reading “Schack Guitars – Video”

In love with Ukuba
Every now and then I thought it would be great to learn to play double bass because it fits better to some styles of music than the bass guitar. But what always kept me away from that is the fact that it’s a very large instrument. It’s takes a lot of space to store itContinue reading “In love with Ukuba”
One word about endorsements
As you probably know I am attending at Musikmesse Frankfurt every year. I am there with Markbass, a Italian company I have an artist deal with. Many of the musicians I meet there are telling me that the reason for them to go to Musikmesse is to get endorsement deals. Thats ok and it’s oneContinue reading “One word about endorsements”

The most important ones to me are the large packing space that it offers, theContinue reading “At Mono Case, Musikmesse Frankfurt”
Never without my bass ;-)
Recently I got a new gig bag to carry my bass around especially when I travel to gigs by train or by plane. The Mono Case M80 makes carrying my bass so comfortable that I literally take it wherever I go 🙂 It’s light, it’s protective and it’s small enough to fit into a overheadContinue reading “Never without my bass ;-)”
My new Markbass stack
I’m happy about my new Markbass equipment, the Randy Jackson signature stack. It’s a great addition to my present Markbass equipment and I’m really looking forward to use it in a live situation soon. You should check it out, too! 🙂
Got a new bass!
As I allready mentioned in the last post, I’ve just picked up my new Schack Guitars bass! I immediately fell in love with it when I picked it up at Schacks’s open house presentation last Sunday and I really got to have it. To me it sounds, feels, plays and looks amazing! Of course itContinue reading “Got a new bass!”
Review: 30th Anniversary of Schack Guitars – open house presentation
Nico Schack organized that open house presentation to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Schack Guitars. The company was found by his father Andy Schack and Nico took over business two years ago. It was a cool event with a lot of old and new friends of Schack Guitars. I was there to celebrate, to checkContinue reading “Review: 30th Anniversary of Schack Guitars – open house presentation”
