    Hello! I'm a bass player from Italy, considering the idea to move to Dublin in the next future as one of my best friends moved there years ago and always says good things about the city.

    I started playing bass in 1998 and in 2008 I started building basses and guitars. I have a degree in Music and Performing Arts and my English is pretty good. I could move to Germany to work for a big company but the wage was... well, disappointing to say the least and they wanted me to work for 55hours a week (!).

    Anyway, I should come for a visit in early October, in the meantime I wanted to see if I could find some big store, repairman/guitar tech/guitar builder/luthier where I could maybe leave my CV? Any idea?

    Thanks in advance!

    I reckon the market for such work is very limited in Ireland as a whole. And I'd say you would struggle to make enough to live off, especially if you want to live in Dublin (The rental market is insane here...). But if you do come, I need a nut replacement on my mexican strat, so you're welcome to do that for me as a start :)
