That's it for Hall E. I headed back up to see if there was anything new in the Hammersmith booth.

Time to JAM!

fanned fret Quake Bass

That got my attention too!

So yesterday when I was leaving NAMM but had to check out just one more booth...well, it appears that I was chatting with @Passinwind and didn't know it!

I'm done with pics for tonight. I'll finish putting up the rest of Hall C tomorrow night.

Tomorrow, I'll be going upstairs at NAMM and seeing the big boys: Fender, Gibson, Peavey. I'm also going to go fire some drummers.

The DRAGONFLY dude was back!

Beautiful basses. Me rikey!!!! Lol

 

[Justice Graves]

Ok now that I'm caught up...First thanks for all the posts...now to the things that caught my eye...

Really want a double p hollow body...Too rad. Reverse P/J seems right up my alley as well. Also who knew I wanted a Spector, the quilt P (not a fan of P shapes or burst) is super beautiful. I had no idea they made an ABG, would love to test drive one. And now I know where to get my pointy uncomfortable to play bass fix from too.

 

[wintremute]

Thanks for the effort!

Carrots. Very nice touch. Well played.

You will be known throughout the entire convention now. The CEO of some major bass maker talking to some famous bass player....
"Hey what's with the dude with the carrots I keep hearing about?"

I love it! Our first TB dog whistle!

Hey @MarkoYYZ said my bass is floating around in an "alternate form" (not yet routed for all of the electronics). I know you have a long request list but if it comes outa the case shoot me a pic, will ya? I'm really wound up about that bass! It should be the only blacked out 5 hanging around Hammersmith.

Yer the man!

I held your bass today!

 

[wintremute]

Please if someone is there and can get me some pictures of the Warrior Leather gig bag's I would really appreciate it.

They don't have gig bags at NAMM. I'll get the info to you so you can contact them.

Over at the Gretsch forum, I saw this :

Tom Petersson TWELVE string bass (4 string + 2 octave strings for each)

I have to track that down! I couldn't find the Gretsch booth.

 

[wintremute]

Thank you for posting all these pics. Thanks for asking my question to EBMM about their 2017 PDN finish.

Maybe I missed the picture, but did you have a chance to drop by Booth 1091 Elegee Guitars?

Also, when you drop by Ibanez, ask if they plan to market Thundercat's signature 6-string semi-hollow Artcore bass for retail.

I've been by the Ibanez Booth three times, and each time they are too busy to get any questions in.

Input Jack:

It comes apart for travel:

I think I saw these guys on the shark tank

Gretsch will be upstairs as part of the Fender display...
D'angelico will be up there too. For some really wild customs check out ESP.

For my part if you get chance, a bit more Sandberg action.
I am seriously GASsing for an Umbo masterpiece aged...

Looking for pics of Jones Basses, the line that Darryl Jones designed and will be selling. He has a few at the Vemuram booth, D2996.
