| 0:00.0 | Hey, how you doing? Scott Devine here from Scottspaceessons.com and today I've got something just a little bit different for you. |
| 0:07.3 | And this isn't the kickoff of season two of the Scott's Bass Essence podcast. |
| 0:13.4 | I thought it'd be cool. Essentially, in a nutshell, I did a video with Chris May, the Master Luthier behind Overwater |
| 0:22.3 | Bases. We did a video the other day and it just, I just got into a groove with it and I started |
| 0:30.0 | asking questions about, you know, what people should be looking for when they're buying bases. |
| 0:35.3 | And I was asking them about woods and electronics and all this type of thing. |
| 0:40.8 | And I just thought, you know what, this would make a great podcast. |

| 1:42.1 | So if you do want to check out the P-Base that we've been working on, |
| 1:45.8 | go to Scottsbacessons.com forward slash episode 13 and you'll find obviously the audio for this |
| 1:53.9 | podcast, but you'll also find the video about the P-base as well. Now, I just want to talk a little |
| 1:59.2 | bit about Chris because he's been one of the most |
| 2:01.4 | important influences in my life. Obviously, my parents are really important, but it was when I met |
