Tech 21 programmable VT Bass pedal. This seems to be something people are excited about.

I didn't take too many celebrity photos (I guess I found the instruments more interesting, LOL) and for some reason the ones I did take ended up being out of focus, but this one got through.

Gail Ann Dorsey and Tony Levin (Note: Geezer Butler was sitting on Gail's right, but all of my photos of the 3 of them are bad :x ):

Oh, man... that thing is INSANE.

And if I didn't have such an issue with Sukop headstocks, I would be gassing really REALLY hard for that thing right now.

I know... call me pathetic, or petty, or lame, or all the above, but some things I just can't get past... and the aesthetics of the Sukop headstock is one of them. :?

Nothing lame about that at all. When you're paying the kind of money boutique basses go for, you should get an instrument you're 100% in love with, including the headstock. :)

I asked and they said they'll make both the single and doublecut bass in a lefty version. I suspect these are coming out of the same factory making the budget Hofer stuff. $499 list on both basses. Not bad.

That guy in a lefty with some upgrades? WANT.

+1. They also had a Les Paul F-hole style bass (OK-301) there that looked very close to the Davison ones that that were selling on ebay last year. I believe AustinLeftyBass has one and likes it.
