BTW I hear he is in the process of stripping a 1700's Antonio Gagliano bass as the original finish is now hundreds of years old and needs to be urgently 'updated' before it gets any older
A Gagliano in South Africa?! I think the nicest instrument in the whole country was Nico Krueger's Hawk's bass, though I don't know what the guys in Cape Town are using.
