I find them more tense and brighter stronger sound, although the alliance basses have a dark quality that I really liked, its just they were out of them in my...
Yes, RP, best of luck! I once took a lesson on Maurice Ohana's "Tiento" from Narciso Yepes. He pointed out that it is based upon "La Folia," the great song of...
