I call dibs on the Fender VI! What's the exchange rate on Australian vs. US dollars these days?

Your store looks like a bass players heaven David. All the right gear that we can only dream of trying out up here. Please move it to Edinburgh. I could spend weeks in there;-)

cool stuff - the 8-string spider bass would be my first grab!

Last time I was in Sydney I bought a digiridoo from Digi Beat(?) right close to where the ferry runs up to Manly. Real nice lady there gave me tips on the circular breathing,,,, took tons of practice - then finally I stopped 'thinking' about it and it came!

Got some John Butler Trio, Yothu Yindi and David Hudson cd's from a shop in Manly,,, best trip I ever made was Down Under. Got engaged in the Cairns night market, snorkeled the Great Barrier Reef, went up to Darwin (went to Twin Falls), then down to Sydney... I want to go back and do Ayers Rock.

Sorry about the ramblin', its Friday and I feel good!

Let's see; you went to Sydney and got a flute, went to a shop in Manly and got some CD's, went to a market in Cairns and got engaged, went to Darwin and .. whoa, back up, they have a market where you can get engaged?

Great store David!!

Actually you could do just about anything at the market.

As fate will have it, I was in David's store about 3 weeks ago. Great store!!!!

I don't know if you recall me, but I was the obnoxious American fellow. : )

Thanks for all the good vibes everyone. We've really tried hard to create bass heaven.

Very nice, David! Looks like a hi-fi store more than a music store (that's a compliment, Mate!).

Cheers,

Kevin
