Damn, you sell Gibson bass books faster than Gibson sells Gibson bass guitars!

Good to know! That tells me the shipments within Europe probably all went without too much trouble. Despite the Corona crisis.
Shipments to the USA, Canada and other overseas parts of the world may take a bit longer than normal.
Although I did get an email from Bunny Brunel that his book arrived last saturday. He lives in California.

Wot, no Second Edition? I want one too!

Besides, you forgot the new "By the Pussy" Grabber BTP signature bass.

Thank you Mark.
So the books are slowly showing up in the USA too.
I got an email yesterday from a customer who bought one of the last books of the first edition on April 20th. His book was delivered on May27th...
Well, I guess the good news is they do show up. But it does take v...e...r...y  l...o...n...g...  :-[

With the combination of Covid-19 & the rioting going on in Minneapolis, mine might take a while yet......

Hopefully not, since you live far enough away from the affected areas, but things won't be back to normal in Minneapolis and St. Paul proper for a long time.
