Getting excited to get there tomorrow to see all your basses, Ken. Did you send any bows, this time?

It seems that Matthew Tucker just won a Silver Medal for Tone with his new bass...

Great for Matt. No bows there for sale but Chris Brown is there in the same room. He has bows.

Leon Bosch and Buster Williams
 

Leon used the Bollbach for his recital and also tried out the fabulous Malvolti. Buster was digging the Tarr and almost used it for his concert but already had a bass lined up beforehand.
