I find it pretty amazing that two weirdo-cool design basses as similar as that brown Hammersmith and the Dudacus Tiberius are out at the same time.

Thank you very much.
If you can get pix of the multi-scale Kiesel, that would be great!

Did Mayonnaise have a Pilichowski signature slap machine bass on the floor? The blue one in the pic has a similar look but I think it's something different.
The real deal should have nearly a Ric body shape and fret markers like the one below. Been wanting to try thumping on one of those but surely can't at the local GC's.

Thanks a lot for doing this dude!
This Moollon 5-string Precision with the dual-coil pickup caught my attention.
And a Berg NV212?!?! Say whaaaaat?

The guy I spoke to about the NV212 said that is sounded great paired with a 15". I told him that some people would call that blasphemy. He said those people were wrong. Then he called the owner over, and Mr. B agreed...blasphemy! LOL
Crazy idea: are there any live cams at the booths? How cool would that be to check into the EBMM booth when Tony Levin played yesterday? Just a thought.
There are.
A friend of mine live streamed two of his paid demos at NAMM booths yesterday afternoon.
Amazing thread! Thanks for doing this. It's interesting how many makers I've never even heard of (the front end of the thread, mostly). There's certainly some really cool stuff out there, and (to my eye, at least) a lot of rather hideous stuff, and some stuff that's both. Regardless, it's all fun to see!
A lot of the stuff at the beginning of the pics was likely from "downstairs", which is a mix of fairly small/obscure companies along with a huge corral of Chinese/Korean/Indonesian brands/companies with various knock-offs and oddities.

Just saw Remco Hendriks and Andy Irvine jam for about 10 min. Bass nirvana.
Ooo man, it's been an action packed day so far! I've got a good number of pics for you guys that I'll upload once I get back, along with some commentary on some of the basses that really caught my ear this year.
I'm taking a quick beer break at the moment, then I'll make my way over to a Billy Sheehan signing at 4. For now, I'll leave you with a pic of the official beer of Talkbass in the attachments, courtesy of Stone Brewing. And yes, it really is delicious

That blue one on the rack with the others is a Prestige 5 Classic!...sorta like mine here...

I didn't see a Mayones Custom Signature Pi4 3 Slap Machine in any of the photo's at the Mayones booth but what I did notice, they seemed to have the most "Sold" tags posted on their basses than any of the other builders booth pics!?
Anybody check out the Mike Watt signature Wattplower from Reverend? Really curious about this one.

Wow, I want one of these!
Wow, I would take that over a Ric in a second. It has all the beautiful lines, but understated and unpretentious for yoeman duty.
