Oh, man, that might be a new favorite for me... I can't wait for that one to arrive, either

With a Maple board? That's gonna look TOOOO cool.

Just yum. I'm very anxious to see this one completed - and to hear about the sound. I'm digging the woods and electronics on this one!

Wow. That is the definition of a "coffee table" bass.

Gard, That's awesome. Ziracote is very unique.

If this is Greg's bass how bout derailing the shipment to Georgia? I wont tell. And he can just pull another one off the wall anyway.


Looking good man.

God Bless, Ray

OK, that one is ridiculous. It was certainly not intended to be mine... my 6-string plan is 2010 or later... I'm hoping this one hangs on the wall long enough that I can tell my wife I had to buy it just to put it out of it's misery....

I don't imagine this one will be around too long Greg.

God Bless, Ray
