This past Wednesday, I picked up my new Solano Panormo model. The tone is excellent, the volume is more than twice that of my old Tyrolean, the sound carries well in whatever space it's in, and the looks are an added bonus. Quite and added bonus.
Rumano is doing some pretty fine work. Get one now before there's a Hachez-esque wait list.
Hey Brandon, your bass looks great. I am waiting on a new Solano myself. BTW, your bass teacher is a supernaturally good bass player. He was my stand partner one year at N. Texas.
Congratulations, that is a very beautiful instrument you have. I actually have the same model from Solano. I think you're going to be very happy with that instrument.
I have this model from Rumano Solano that he made for me in 1996. He has said it is one of the finest basses he has made. I have 3 basses and need to let one go. If interested please E-mail me. Serious inquires only please. Like new Moridian bag as well. By the way, one of my other basses is a Solano as well, I am a BIG fan of his work.
