"My favorite part of NAMM was visiting Fodera basses, because not only are their instruments and craftsmanship superb, but the people who make them are as well." Andrew Pham

"The Lewitt Audio booth. I like to listen to whatever they are coming out with first. Last year the new 640 studio mic blew my mind. I used the MTP 840 for my live performances in 2016 and it got the closest to a condenser sound on a Dynamic mic, which was perfect for me. Condensers can be temperamental in some live settings and the mtp 840 is rich, clear and balanced. This year the mtp 940 live mic was really great to hear. Thomas Claxton sang the hell out of in our duo shows at NAMM."

There isn't really one specific thing. I typically visit booths that pertain to live sound, and brands that are familiar to me. A lot of companies unveil their latest products and/or updates at NAMM, so I've got to keep up.
