Thanks, Rich! It can be difficult capturing such detail, so I am glad I got it.

Gary, did you try any of those fanned fret basses? I've never seen any to play, around here. My only real experience with a fanned fret instrument is my Yamamoto MS-12 that I bought a few years ago.

I don't remember taking any specifically of fanned fret basses this year. IIRC, I had taken one at a previous NAMM show, but I don't remember what year that was. I'll see if I can flocate it.

Um, check out the last photo in your previous post (set 16). :mrgreen:

I see what looks like an LTD Alex Skolnick Sig guitar in that LTD photo (1st photo of set 17, if you don't recall :mrgreen: ). I've seen Alex a few times, in three different bands at Night Town in the recent past. None of them were Testament, thank God! :lol:

The operational word is "specifically"!

Here is a picture (it may be the same bass referred to) from last year's NAMM show; I specifically took a picture to show the fanned fret bass in this one:
