Works fine Matt...that’s an older video (Chuck Thornton is still his bass player in that video). Laurent is not only a great luthier but is a fantastic player as well...

You bet. Click the EDIT button to see what I did. You had the entire URL between the youtube tags. All you needed was, "le_tMrfBMUQ." Here are the directions in the FAQs. PM me if I can help.

Here's a clip of bass luthier extraordinaire Vinnie Fodera (lead guitar) and his partner Joey Lauricella (bass) in a recent local TV appearance:



These two guys not only know how to make them, they can play the crap out of them...

Yeah wow that's pretty kick arse. Looks like a Strat does he not build electric guitars?

Have to say I'm seriously impressed: He does a more than passable Holdsworth impersonation (how easy is THAT?!!), and has the tone nailed as well. Probably the best luthier player I've heard, and by quite some margin.

Cheers,
Steve

Laurent builds electrics and refurbishes used electrics as well. His influences include Eric Johnson, Holdsworth, David Grissom, and obscure European bands. His tone is close to EJ and Holdsworth.
