| | | Merry Sniffmas from the South! I always smell a brand new Martin, but I have never smelled a new bass. Maybe I should start

| | | | Both my Birdsongs (Sadhana and Embrace) smell like heaven! Scott hand rubs a secret oil mixture on the wood. Every time I open those cases, it's like aromatherapy. My teacher calls it the "scratch and sniff" bass!
