Club Bordwell Part 4

I just saw Ivan Santiago's Urban Bass video. His CB looks and sounds fantastic. Anywhere in NYC or NJ that I can try one out?

If you're ever on the east coast of South Florida, let me know. I'm about a two hour drive north of Miami or two hours southeast of Orlando. Come to Port St. Lucie for Mets spring training. That's pretty much where I am. You can try my 32" scale and, in April, my fretless 32" CB.
 
Here's a quick riff I recorded for you this evening. First time through is with the Bart Piezo Buffer on full. The second time the buffer and magnets (Nordy Fatstacks) are equal. The third time the buffer is switched "off". Hope this helps a little.

CB SC5fl with Nordy Fatstacks and Graph Tech piezo, into a Motu Ultralite MK3 then into GB. No effects, eqing or mastering.

Thanks so much for the clip. I've been wanting to hear the ghost piezo bridge for a project. It sounds great.

Cliff's work looks fabulous. Happy to see such a talented builder being recognized here.

FYI... I know it was mentioned on the last thread but I uploaded some new vids with my new Sig bordwell

Fab fab band. Lucky you.

I'm sure you don't want my critique but ... when playing unison with your sax/trom players you are playing ahead of them! I know because I do exactly this. I've always played ahead of the beat. It's very frustrating.

Great sound and band - I'm jealous.
