NAMM Report

[Jackson2112]

It was great meeting you BP, thanks for switching NAMM Tags for the pics. The
50th Anniversary party was unreal, you played great with Steve Morse and Albert
Lee. Steve Vais Tribute to your Family was really great and heart felt. Thanks
Always for the best guitars in the world.

Steve Vai on an LP? I bet he can't play as fast but his tone would have improved no end!!!

BP-
i didn't want to bother you yesterday at the show but it was an absolute honor to finally meet you and you knew my forum name without hesitation. But thank you for taking the time to say hello in the midst of your busy schedule.

im looking forward to many of the new products hitting the street. Can't wait for the cobalts and the everlasts... should be incredible for sure.


Thanks again and congrats on the big milestone...

BTW you rocked it big time on the Bass... you can certainly hold it down with the best of em.

I'd say at least 3 people felt that way but I can't speak for Nick hahahaha

Seriously BP, great job and again - Congratulations on such a huge milestone.

Did you catch that Steve Morse is playing slide? The crowd went nuts when the band pointed to him and he did the solo from What Is & What Should Never Be. What a special special night.

ETA: I snapped an identical pic at the exact same time. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!

 

[OU812]

Check out the size of Steve's pinky!

 

[PeteDuBaldo]

kramer.guitar

Which Steve? haha

 

[OU812]

haha oh sh*t thats right, I meant Morse but then again Vai has long fingers as well.

Vai is awesome, but someones gotta tell him that Mrs. Doubtfire called and wants her glasses back lol I'm kidding of course, and only someone like him can pull those off.

 

[Dr.Strangenote]

Thanks guys. And BP, thanks for all your hard work, totally worth it!
