Well, I guess you're missing a copy of Heet Sound's "Next Generation EBow"
flyer and the riveting experience of hearing the new EBow in person....and,
OK, they call it "a gruesome harmonic position just a switch away," but
essentially it's an octave-up switch. You can take it up with them at
213-687-9946 and hear a demo at 213-625-3269.
