Oh yeah, that one has been at the past 2 MARF events (and both times I've forgotten to play it :( ). Haven't seen Alex on the forum in quite a while!

John, was that Alex Heist? Haven't seen him on in a while either.

Jeff, based on your Rare Blend recording that featured that 4003FL (which still serves as a model on two sites IIRC), I think I'd have really enjoyed a chance to play it. Actually (I've said this before) that is what got me to go "double Toaster"... your soloed bridge Toaster recording. Nice work.

Alex hasn't been here in a while, but I would hope that he will show up at the next MARF. :!:

Thanks Joshua. :D

Definitely Joey! I sure will bring my camera and visit you when I have a chance to go to California. That's a promise, my friend!

Funny how the bubinga they use hasn't changed much over the years. My 2008's fingerboard looks almost exactly like this.
