09 09 02 It´s the first time I´m in touch with a lefty bassplayer from Austria. Alexander Bickel. I like to thank him very much for getting his informations, like Jason Achilles Mezilis / USA as well. I´m glad to get your support! By this time I hope to get the informations from all other lefties I´m in touch with. Please support my idea and send me your profiles. Many of you have heard about the german luthier Gerald Marleaux (Marleaux-Basses) On July, 23, we met him in his great workshop in Claustal-Zellerfeld. You will find a review in the rubric "Meetings". |
Hamer B12L Chaparral It was my wish for a very long time. It took more than 4 weeks, negotiations with the pre-owner, discussion with the german customs, till I could hold it into my arms! But now here it is!

07/20/02 ...and there was the idea, witch I like to make come true. Some weeks before, all seams to be perfect. But than there were so much trouble, I never thought before. Since this weeks, I was working day by day to find out solutions for all this things. Somtimes I liked to stop this project, but when I was listening to your music on this CD, I was really lucky. And the result makes me proud. I like to thank you all for your effort and your patience and now ... here it is!!!!

06/09/2002 There are so many events this time, that I am something missing, that wasn't offered in the Internet till now: The time and money! 1. Paul Di Leo (USA) stays with "Nena" in Berlin right now and I try to meet him. If it doesn´t work this time, maybe a little bit later. 2. Eric Wiebelhaus (USA) comes to Düsseldorf. I also would like to meet him there. 3. Will Rogers will come for a show in munich at the end of September. I hope to see you, Will! 4. The trip to London had to be cancelled on reason of the missing time. 5. A lovely Fender Jazz Bass (made in Japan) has come into my house for a mercilessly reasonable price. 6. Immediately after this Fender deal, something unbelieveable happened-----------> 7. The technical problems of our Lefty-CD became cleared. 8. The logistics for the project is completely And the community of the left-handed bass players grows again! Please give a big welcome to: Sarah Masters / Australia, Will Rogers / USA, David LaFaire / USA, Stephen Smith / England, John Pitingolo / USA |
There are moments, you can´t believe your own eyes no more! So happens on 31-05-02: We came from Bremen on this day and wanted to
take a snack at the Musik Produktiv in Ibbenbüren / Germany. Then a short look
into the "lefthand department" and as quickly as possible back home! There it was! A 76´ Fender Jazz Bass,
Made in USA! Natural!! In an excellent condition! What then has happened, I can´t
really remind by myself. All things that happend after this first sight, Sigi had to
tell me afterward. I was so "drunken" from this moment on! I paid a deposit and made thought about how I can get the remaining money from. (Of course! You will find almost such bargains, when you have no money next time!) One week later I´ve been able to free the Jazz Bass from the claws of the MP.
