The holidays are here again! It seems like just yesterday we were strolling through the streets in shorts and Crocs (okay, we’re kidding, we don’t wear these… anymore). Where does the time go?

We hope this holiday season brings all of you a tremendous amount of happiness, and we hope you get a chance to reflect on what a crazy year we’ve had so far. We’ve got one LAST newsletter coming out before the years end so we won’t bore you by reminiscing YET — but be warned, it’s coming!

Anyways, we hope all of you enjoy this time of year, get some much needed relaxing in (we know we will), and generally make merry, no matter what you celebrate. Since the tonebase team can only be together via the magic of photoshop, we’ll leave you to enjoy the holidays with this one last picture of us- enjoy!

Love, Peace and A-M-I Scales,
Abhi, Chris & Igor
the tonebase team
