Wow, here is a clip of a guy playing a BN6 who is a lot more ambitious than I am!
Hat's off to you, Harry!

You will recall a previous post where I announced that I had gone to the F Bass Factory in Hamilton, met George and selected the wood for my new BN5. Geroge said it would take 6 weeks to build, largely because I chose a gloss finish which needs to cure after painting for 2 weeks. True to his word, the bass was ready in 6 weeks - actually 5 weeks and 1 day.
If I've done this right, there should be an attachment showing a sunburst BN5.

Yeah, that guy doesn't suck much....
Hey - cool news for us F Bass fans! I mentioned a month or so ago that I'm working on an interview with a Las Vegas Cirque De Soleil bassist. That interview is complete and will be posted this week. And it should be that every month after that for the rest of the year there will be new interviews posted on my site. Including people like Alain Caron, Etienne Mbapp, Dominique Dipiazza, and many others!!! Woot!
So send your questions in.
Thumb up for you, DONOVAN~!
