It has been my distinct pleasure to be involved with the development of the Vans Evers Harmonic SoundBoard since the inception of the project. From the beginning discussions of need and possibility I have watched as Mike's process led to the creation and testing of Mark 1, 2, and 3 versions of the device. I can say without hesitation that this process and the results have been fascinating, inspiring, and thrilling to observe and experience.  I have used the device in performance in my position as Principal Double bass of the Florida Orchestra, including all types of performance: Masterworks, Pops, Park, Chamber and even as a concerto soloist with the orchestra. Again I say without hesitation that the device has transformed my musical experience with the enjoyment of greatly enhanced tonal richness and projection.  The device has improved the overall presentation of my instrument to a tangible degree that could only hope to be matched by an upgrade to an absolute master instrument, the likes of which are unavailable to all but the wealthiest of collectors.          The benefits of this miracle are more than apparent to all who hear a demonstration of my instrument with and without the device. This group of listeners includes colleagues, students, and laypersons.  I have yet to hear an instrument possessing an endpin fail to be substantially improved by the use of this device, and I recommend it to all serious musicians whatever their respective level of accomplishment. Sincerely, Dee Moses Principal Double-bass, The Florida Orchestra Adjunct Instructor of Double-bass, The University of South Florida
