We hope to have Anthony back again in early 2009!

Bass Player Live was a truly unique event this year! Held at SIR Studios in Los Angeles, Aguilar was able to secure a room with Alleva Coppolo Basses, Dunlop, EMG and Spector. The room, which was quickly dubbed “The Cool Room”, saw an impromptu jam session break out with Aguilar Artists Nathan East and Rickey Minor along with special guest, Ready Freddie Washington! View photos and read our wrap-up here:

The Sound Sample webpage is here! We have some cool sound samples for the Tone Hammer featuring Dan Lutz and Steve Jenkins (more coming soon). Many have asked for sound samples featuring the overdriven sound of the Tone Hammer and Dan Lutz delivered!Please visit http://www.aguilaramp.com/tonehammer_settings.htm for more. If you would like to view this page again, you can find it in our menu options under “Products” and then “Sound Samples”.

Another new addition to the site is an artist interview with Tony Grey! Tony is a fantastic bassist whose album “Chasing Shadows” is one of our favorites, here at Aguilar HQ. Tony has a truly incredible story, so be sure to have a read.

Our friends at Guitar Gear Heads and Rhythm Player were our special guests at the Avishai Cohen Master Class in August. Afterwards they interviewed Aguilar execs, Dave Boonshoft and Dave Avenius.

The interview features an intensive look through the Aguilar process of manufacturing as well as stories about how certain pieces of gear came to be. It's a great read - Enjoy!
