About me:
fleabass is born of my love of music education
as a studier and a teacher of music,and a lover and a romanticizer
of the tradition of it,
i wanted students to have an instrument they could fall in love with,
and i wanted them to be able to do it with the limited means that
most of them have for acquiring one
when i was a boy,i used to place my trumpet on my bed,stand back in
my room away from it,and just stare at it for a long time,it
was so
beautiful to me,
and i imagined what was possible with that instrument,and i
was amazed by it,the color and the shape of it,and by the hope
and
exciting tradition within it,the masterpieces of human beings
who
had played one just like it before me
in a hectic life,chaotic world,it represented transcendent
beauty
to me
of course,my trumpet was supplied to me by the public school
system,
now children are not afforded that luxury
that is why i started my non profit music school 'the silverlake conservatory of music'
and that is why i have started this bass company 'fleabass'
our single goal at fleabass,is to provide to young people
something
to fall in love with
that their families can afford to buy
ans also to be a company that can sustain itself over a long
period
of time
fleabass is not a licensed product
each bass will be made with care and thoroughly checked for
quality
we take pride in each insrument
it is our steadfast intention to make an inexpensive bass
guitar
that is not a toy that breaks and has lousy intonation,and has awkward action,like so many cheap basses i have incountered with
young music students
but is a serious instrument that plays beautifully and that will only get better with time
and looks cool as hell!
