Man, it took a long time to get some of the better pics in this thread. I'm a little disappointed...
Have you ever been to a NAMM show? You might be underestimating the situation if not. Seriously, it's actually pretty difficult to take lots of decent pics. With the close quarters, often horrible lighting, thick chaotic crowds, and your own uber-busy agenda of actually wanting to get things done (meet with people, physically check stuff out), it's really hard to get pictures, let alone lots of good ones.

Vic is right! Very hard to take pics if you are not there at 8 or 9 in the morning before everyone comes in and the madness begins.

I am fortunate to be an exhibitor this year and last so I took as much pics that I could when I was there early.

Here are links of the pics that I took:

Awesome bass but I could without the skanky toothpick in the background! :p I have really come to love the Thumb again. Hey, I might even buy one in richer days.
 
Very cool pics. What's the story on the little black Mike Pope preamp on page 5? Haven't seen that one before.

Those are nice looking basses. Some great players are jamming them in those pics - any video clips? Good job coming up with a tasteful headstock design, btw.

Anyone know what those graphite-necked basses are in the pic above of Kevin Walker? The one he's playing looks like a Jazz bass of some kind.

Kevin is playing the Brubaker Jazz in that pic... They are GREAT basses!!

Bass gear needs to hire a Namm photographer next time, I volunteer my services.:D

I promise I want play anything, of course I can't that 85db limit is about 100db too low.:p

That's a new product from Mike this year called the Mitre Box. It is a small compact preamp and headphone monitoring unit. I will be carrying them at my site/shop and will also be using one personally. This little box can be used in so many ways: studio/recording, standalone preamp for powered cabinets, practice headphone amp, preamp and DI for live gigs that require you to go direct, etc, etc.
