Hello,

I saw the Simba on my trip to China, so it must be made in that region of the world.

"When was the last time you saw an advert for band gear on TV?"--from Synonymous Botch

It's kind of interesting that we bought a new car recently and free for the first three months is XM radio (living near Washington, D.C., there are 5 or 6 classical stations, 3 jazz stations, so this is unnecessary, but if I lived in the sticks, it would be a necessity). I listen to the comedy channel frequently and Musician's Friend advertises there. I'm sure they've done a market study and determined that people that listen to the comedy channel have their own rock bands, or whatever, but it is the first music store advertisement I've ever seen (heard) in popular media.

I'm waiting for the first $100 pro quality instrument from Asia. I'll be the first in line to purchase. Actually, everything I read about that region of the world reminds me of America a couple hundred years ago, economically speaking, that is. If you think back even 100 years, labor was inexpensive in the US. That's why there are so many cool buildings in large cities with excellent architectural features. Today, it would cost a fortune to have these included on a building, which is why most buildings today look very "cookie cutter" and dull.
