You should definately check out Brady Muckelroy with Muckelroy Basses. He is sharing a booth with Mark Wright of AccuGroove. He built the custom fretless in my avatar. It is a stunning instrument, the finest these hands have touched. He is also a super cool dude, and a monster player. He has a few fine specimens of his work with him.

I am not affiliated, just a huge fan. I visited his shop with my family while my fretless was being built and loved him and it so much I ordered 2 more. He has been pretty busy gearing up for the show, but I am excited for him to get back and ramp up production on my new babies. His prices are fantastic by the way. If you want a custom bass, give him a shot.

I about swallowed my tongue when someone said that the Anthony Jackson Fodera was $30K. You have a pic of it and Munji has a few with him holding it (and Chris from Bass San Diego).

It's a good story too, but I'll let Munji tell it.

Ritter has gone off the deep end with a $28K crystal ball guitar and a $18K paisley fabric one.
 
I have an Ashdown miBass 220. This looks to be the same thing as the miBass series, But in a different casing. front headphone jack, instead of a front "line-in" for an MP3 player.

I was sad to see the miBass so short lived, as they sound very good and have an extremely flexible EQ system. Glad to see something extremely similar.

LOL. Anthony was very gracious about having his picture taken with Chris and, after hearing that BSD (Chris) had sold one of the new signature hybrids, he offered to have the bass in the picture. So Chris went over to the rack to get the bass and got an, "Uh-uh, uh-uh" from Anthony (understably so - that bass is an absolute work of art). But here's the pic. That's Vinny's daughter Laura on the left.

OK, here is a slew of pictures from various bass builders.

Some Roscoes. Check out the headless Travel Bass. Also, that teal colored one - it's a solid quilted maple body. I'll append a picture of Gard and Keith tomorrow.

A few Foderas. That holly-topped Emperor II is fabulous.

Here we are at Joe Zon's Booth, with Chris, Michael Manring, Jim Bergantino, Joe Zon and Mark. I brought these two basses home with me ... then took them to BSD Monday.

Here are a couple MTD basses that came home with us - that's Mike Tobias, Norm Stockton, and another guy.

Here are a few of Mike Lull's basses. Then you've got Paul, Mike Lull, and that same creepy guy.

And finally, some F Basses for y'all.

Anyway, I've got more pics - bunches of Fender stuff and more. I'll post 'em later.
