Nice bass, Steve...

Here's one on a French guy who rolls his own.

Vacuum tubes, that is! Get a cuppa coffee or tea; this one's 17 minutes long.

Awesome! He has a LOT of time on his hands. He even molds his own plastic or phenolic bases. Rich, eccentric, with a lot of time on his hands. I'm impressed! Thanks.

Well, I saw either Andy (with hair) or his twin, at NAMM, demonstrating at one of the boutique acoustic makers' booths.

I was transfixed. It's sort of the same thing that Hendrix did with his Strat and effects--take playing into a whole new realm.

I saw him a few weeks ago here in Lawrence. Not exactly my cup o' tea. And he had more hair, too.

That was great and he is really good, but Michael Hedges came first, and is one of Andy's influences. RIP Michael.

Yeah, I'd post more, but these are not exactly family stuff. The dog kick is priceless, even tho I'm a dog lover. I firmly believe that no animals were harmed, etc.
