- I play it all. Whatever works for the gig. Q+
the female players really dig it... I loved the sound... might be cool go with a light set of strings and use it as a piccolo too.. would work great as a session tool..
for 5'2" female players it is perfect... where are the Bangels when you need them.

I posted a link to my pics a few pages back... But they didn't come out too well. The camera is normally pretty awesome so I guess it's me that's the problem.
Well Bernie... I am trying to go to the shop tonight and will record the blue bass along with the walnut 5 for you... But it's raining like crazy here and traffic might be stupid bad - to those who've been, think CA traffic times at least 3. :scowl:
So right now I am doubtful.

I saw mudslides on one of our news feeds here at work. Looks bad; take care.
(edit: like, not the wet cheerleader kind of mudslides either)

Like Chef said, take care and be safe above all. But if you do make it there, I can't wait to hear what you come up with!
I just saw a large boat with some animals on it floating down the street. Not sure what that's all about...
Whoa!! Congrats, Jimmy! So that's why Hugh was hanging at the booth. Very, very cool.
Wonder if that is nitro and a brazilian board? Kinda looks like it.
The pic..
And a couple others..
Just found this pic too and here's the caption..
"Here's Jimmy Coppolo, of Alleva-Coppolo, delivering Hugh's new bass to him at the Show. Hugh's wife bought it for him as a Christmas gift."

Yes it is Nitro, with Dalbergia FB.. pretty light Alder too.. Hugh changed the PG to Mint yesterday and it was dropped off at the rehearsal place for cartage today.
Its about 8.5 pounds or so. and a nice balance too..

I like the oly/tort with the fancy Leopard control knobs
(like my old LM-5). But, it's Hugh's bass and he can do whatever he
wants with it. I hope he plays it on the Grammy Awards!

I'm hoping he uses it when I see Bon Jovi on the 19th of February - I won free tickets from a radio station
