Just uploaded a new soundfile.

The new soundfile features the same riff played over and over again with different settings:

-both pickups without piezo
-neck pu single
-bridge pu single
-both pus with 50% piezo
-both pus with 100% piezo
-neck + piezo
-bridge + piezo
-final riff features a deep tone which is the neck pu single and the melody on top is played with both pus and piezo 100%

The neck pu has a very deep and acoustic tone
The Bridge pu has a Jaco- "twang"
The Piezo adds some "click", it gives the finger tone more attack and definition, I think Alain uses the piezo in his solos quite a lot

How do I find your sound file? And I enjoyed the AC video! Fun.

Loved the file. I've gotta get me a neck pickup on my fretless AC6! :D
 
Hangin' out with George last night was fun too. At one point, we had Carey, Mo (both of Nordstrand, of course), and George all hangin' out drinkin' beer and shootin' the s***. Man, it was a blast. :)
 
This youtube video is totally about pitching MarkBass's new amps, but in the background you can see what I believe to be George Furlanetto, Etienne Mbappé, Hadrian Feraud and Jeff Berlin in the back ground.

There were so many more photos of last years NAMM for us all to enjoy than this year... I guess I've resorted to looking for MarkBass videos to see if I can spot anything about Fbass in them.
 
Another George sighting... this time with Jimmy Coppollo.

+1 Man, I do love that whole "bass bash meets microbrewery" concept. It really was great to hang with George, Mo, Carey, Donovan, Pete Skjold, and all the cats at the Bass Bash.
 
Man, NAMM was a ton of work for me! But it was awesome to see George again, and it was also wonderful to finally put a face to a name with Tom Bowlus and Vic. What a great bunch of guys, ya'll. Isn't it awesome being a bass player?
Yup, and there are few places on the planet as cool as Bass Quake (Bash). Amazing food, beer, and music. And, a really nice place to take a fine date as well. :)

Donovan, didn't mention it before, but yeah, it was really great to talk to you in person (tho I knew it would be anyway). I'd look forward to hangin' out with you again someday. :)
