Bass Brain and other stories

What's on this week? Why EKKA of course!



We are all super excited to be heading in on Monday, as that's Logan's official Ekka Day, so we won't be in the shop. Go have some fun, eat too much fairy floss and go on too many rides, and we will catch up with you on Tuesday!

Ever heard of Bass Brain? It's a terrible, terrible condition that happens to Bass Players after a time.. just kidding! But there is a phenomenon that actually physically changes your brain, and it's called, simply, playing music.



Studies from the Brain and Creativity Institute at the University of Southern California show that learning an instrument for as little as two years can physically alter the structure of our brains. It improves our ability to process information and make decisions, as well as focus our attention. The study has been going on since 2012 and has found some fascinating results. Check it out here - after you've finished today's music practise, of course!

So one of our favourite brands of Bass Guitar is Ibanez, and they make some sweet models.



Take the TMB600 Talman Bass for example. Classic lines and feel, powerful versatility. Or if you want a more adventurous style, try the SRH500F Bass, with it's semi-hollow body, spruce top and mahogany back. Brilliant design for comfort and playability and amazing tone. If standing out for style isn't your thing, slink back into the shadows with this sleek SR320 Bass in glossy black. Perfect price for a bass that really will do anything. Ibanez even has your travelling needs covered, and we have an awesome acoustic bass for when you want to have a jam without the amp: the PCBE12MH. Great tone and a great price, play it anywhere!
