Yes Indeed
.... Thanks for putting up with all of us at your cool-bass-pad Troy. It was great meeting your family unit .... Kirsten, your son Del (with his great Winston Churchill impression), and Nancy The Happy Dog. I enjoyed meeting and hearing all the bassists and basses and, although I was fighting with my ADD, I tried to soak in as much info as I could in the short time available.
There was some awesome energy in that living room on Sunday
. Sunday was my birthday and that was the best party I ever had. I thoroughly enjoyed myself just watching Jake The Luthier Dynamo thumping on tailpieces and fingerboards, listening to afterlength tuning, sticking his mirror into dark places, talking about the importance of minimizing grams, and explaining how he gets all the parts of a bass to work together constructively. Getting my Jake-reworked Epiphone back was just about the best present of the week-end .... Right behind getting out of Seattle traffic without getting in a wreck after getting lost and taking an extra 30 mile diversion south (it's a bitch driving alone with no navigator
), then finally seeing the I-90 East sign, and then crossing over the last big pass into Montana
.

Yep .... On this visit to Seattle I believe that is the most humidity my 1940 Kay has seen in over 60 years
