Blues pentatonic scale and getting lead licks together

With a few books on blues lead and some books on finger picking I am moving forward with learning the six string guitar.

Ukulele and back to the Ottawa Folklore School of Music

I signed up for Ukulele lessons after buying a Mainland tenor Ukulele. It is fun learning to strum in different patterns and learning more about rhythm keeping.

I am selling my bass amplifer stack.

This massive amplifier stack is taking up too much space, so I am selling it piece by piece. It was a Traynor YBA 200 all tube head, with 1 Bag End D210 and two Traynor NEO cabinets. The Bag End cabinet has been sold and it looks like the YBA 200 amp head will be sold today. That leaves the TC210NEO and TC115NEO to still be sold.

The business of music is on my mind not so much making music

I have been looking into owning a new Fender bass on an interest free loan a music store is offering. Instead, I will save up a 500$ downpayment and pay interest over two years for a Fender Jazz bass if I can afford to save up the 500$ downpayment.

Starting to explore musicians wanted adds online.

I started replying to musicians wanted adds for bassists. I posted an add of my own looking for weekend jamming.

Slowing down a bit on music production.

Peter has been relearning the melodic minor scale and using that for sequences. No new equipment has been purchased lately. Peter needs a short speaker cable for his bass amplifier. Peter inquired about getting the light on his new Fender guitar amplifier fixed. The Fender Hot Rod Deluxe is under warranty for another 9 months.
