The Jacksonville Jazz Festival is an annual event here spread over several venues. It is on a weekend and for the most part free to the public. Stanley Clark and George Duke performed together this year. I can't take credit for the photo. I took it from the website of the local newspaper. Sam |

Hm, it doesn't have the dragon inlay, and the neck lams look like purpleheart - so it can't be the 30th Anniversary. |

Ebony would be nearly black, and these lams are red. |

Physical dimensions are the same as his Dragon's Breath - but this one's all Vermilion and Maple - even the neck. |

hey mica, is that an ebony front peghead laminate, or is it vermilion in low light? it's quite dark, but it does seem to have a tinge of red in it marc |

The peghead faces are vermilion as well. I just spoke with Stan's manager, and as much as he loves the new bass, he's still a little wary about taking it on the road. So unless you see him play in southern California, you probably won't see the Dragon's Breath live for a while. |
