Winter NAMM 2017 (ultra Pic-heavy)

I guess from the modulus Facebook they didnt have a booth there....I woulda liked to see what theyre up to but i guess production is too slow.

Thanks for taking the time to take and upload this boatload of pics OP, i've really enjoyed them!

Also, did you really get kicked out of the Rickenbacker booth? is that a thing?

I crashed. Time for Saturday's pics.



Jesse Keeler from Death From Above 1979 was in the booth getting a bass!

Devon bass' booth was finally somewhat clear.

I took a strap with me this year, so I could check balance.

ORANGE BASS does neck dive. Not crazy, but enough that I would not want it.

The MARKBASS booth...another that I feel like I couldn't move around in...finally was somewhat calm.

Do the new semi-hollow Ibanez SRs have neck dive? No...and I got about 10ft away with this before I was stopped (just kidding).

I hope everyone understand how grueling it is to go into these places and sit on luxurious couches and just soak up the art. The sacrifices I make for you!

I had to sit on the matching couch to take this picture...like some peasant!

More LTD.

I don't hear much about LTD here on TB. Who plays these? What's your take?

How did it sound for £238 bass?

Mucho thanks for getting some Pedullla shots! The times I've been there the Pedulla booth space was just so tiny that there was room for about one person or less to try a bass at a time.

Pedulla-licious!

I like seeing the way out stuff. My Lord, I'm so sick of the never-ending promenade of J-basses! None of which actually sound like a great Jazz bass, BTW.

No doubt, if you're going to make "your" Jazz bass at least make it look a bit different.

So after looking this stuff over, I say to the TE guy, "that's a nice bag".

Do you have anything like that for the new stuff? He says, "They come with it." That got me happy, because hell yeah this kinda stuff should come with a bag! So, can I see it? They've been looking for them since the show opened. They don't know where they are. So he goes off to look. This other guy, who I think is an exhibitor artist, asks what's going on. I tell him how the other dude is looking in the back for the bags. He's says, yeah, I've been asking for those since the opening. So the first guy comes back and says he can't find them. So now the artist has had enough, he grabs the first guy, and they go into the back. Awhile later they return victorious!

The ELF bag has two pockets, and so could hold 2 ELFs (Elves?), or 1 and some cables.

The Transit has a snug fit in its bag. It has an outside pocket to hold the extras.
