New IMN Podcast and Irish Bass Porn
The new IMN podcast is up - download it or listen at the site or on WFYI HD2, Thursdays at 4pm.
The beauty to the left comes from Emerald Guitars, appropriately enough from Ireland. The basses are made from carbon fiber, and they actually provided a live sound sample from YouTube - not bad, and probably extremely light. Interesting placement on the soundhole, too (for the acoustic basses - not this one). Check out the curves on the body at the site, too. They're doing a lot with carbon fiber that I suspect would be exceedingly difficult with wood.
