I am loving those specs...and I'm loving the pics even more. Beautiful top, and just looking at that grain on the body makes me think this one will have some serious booty. Congratulations!

First thought - WOW!

This is the first bass I've had built to spec. I didn't think I could be more excited, but I was wrong. I can't wait!!!

Greg - thanks for posting! Everybody else - thanks for the kind words!

And before I forget, Great Choices Steve! I love Flame Maple too.

Good on choosing Black hardware too. Though my Roscoe gets mad any time it sees anything Black or Gold

God Bless, Ray

Yes, in all seriousness, the black hardware will look stellar, chrome would too, which just gave us an opportunity to jab at Joe!
