I'm talking about 9 and 11 string basses. I think this is the first time they have open the door to this extreme subject matter.I hope you like the article. I thank them for the press. www.bassplayer.com Al Caldwell |

I'm really interested to read it. I always love hearing what phenominal bassists have to say. I'm too scared to play anything with more than 6 strings right now. I'm primarily a 5-string player right now. I want to at least play some extended-range basses sometime. I have a feeling that I'd fall in love and GAS would kick in though; and if I've learned anything from looking at basses... I've learned that often the more strings there are: the more $$. Not a good combo for me.
Regardless, I'll be reading the article tomorrow. It'll give me something to look forward to.

My only problem is I get distracted by your playing and say things like, "Honey, do you hear what he just played?"
Not exactly conducive, if you know what I mean! |

Just got BP in the mail yesterday, and brought it to work to read the article about you.
Great pic-man that's a lot of gear!
Well deserved, and all the best!

| | | | Sitting here reading this, I realized that I had the newest copy of BP here at work with me! Just finished the article - Great stuff in there! I loved the "That's my big boy...he's going to rule the earth" comment.
Next month they need to do an article with you about using a bass synth on extended range basses!
