I have a couple of rails, cut and drilled for Musser size, so I am running a special offer on the audio pickup system (Musser model only) this March.
Normal price for the set is euro 900, I am offering these for 780 euros (ex vat, ex shipping).
Offer stands till I'm out of stock.

Hi everyone,
It's been a while since I've posted on the site, but I wanted to let you know about a project that i'm doing about jazz in New York. I’ll be in New York City from March 1st to the 15 to see jazz shows, talk to and interview musicians, and write about it on my blog. On my calendar are Kurt Rosenwinkel, Matt Wilson, Cedar Walton, Eddie Palmieri, the Heath Brothers, and more (but unfortunately no vibes players).
"The first thing I do every morning is check out the site!"
Here's a clip from circa late 90s of a gig at a local jazz club featuring the late clarinetist Dick Johnson. Marshall Wood is on bass and Les Harris Jr. is on drums.
Marshall and Les can really lay down a beautiful and solid groove. I had the opportunity to play with Dick on many occasions (many times along with trumpeter Herb Pomeroy) and it was always special. I learned so much from Dick and Herb and feel very fortunate that I got to play with both of them. They are both sadly missed.
