Thank you, thank you. I visited a friend of mine who sells really top shelf gear yesterday on a lark, and he had this baby lying around. It was a long ways from cheap (and not a long ways from a BHSE), but damned if it isn't the nicest instrument I've ever touched. It took a massive culling of headphone gear to make it happen, but happen it did.
Go to hell, and then tell that to Duck Dunn
Oh no... the expensive hobby is back...
It's a custom Dingwall Afterburner II bass with a buckeye burl top. Better to make music if you can, right? I mean... right?
regardless of the musical tastes of the person I am paired with, they will be receiving the same CD. It's my favorite CD of last year, and I want everyone to know how great it is.
I don't think it's unreasonable to assume that the above gentleman was doing just that with his feet at the very moment the picture was taken.

Yeah, the actual musicianship and the music itself is top notch. I get the impression that they went for the traditional "crowd around an old microphone" bluegrass recording approach, but I'm disappointed with the result. Luckily, there's plenty more Chris Thile that's well recorded.
Vicki, how does this album sound? I have a dig. copy of it, obtained less than ethically, and it is absolutely terrible. Muffled dynamics, flabby bass, yuck. It's so bad that I held off on buying the real deal, for fear that it would be basically the same.
