Yes- it adjusts tempo on the fly. Very special limited edition, I believe I have the only one in existence.

It's actually an intellitouch tuner. Ron Carter was paid to say it's 'the hippest tuner on the planet' or something like that, so it MUST be good.

Thumbs up PM.

Nice, but in interest of our TBDB community at large.......

Bassteban is one (of three) of my Internet bass "students" that I've offered some free lessons to via TBDB.
This is kind of an experiment, founded on a Thread not long ago, from another member who was needng some simple help with a simple answer to a simple musical/bass question. I offered my help in public ....suggested a "rehearsal" over our phones in a PM.
The poor guy prolly read some of my stuff here and made a sane decision to not want to come anywhere near me.
Anyway, our apologies.....
PM city please.
