It says "pink" ... is it gonna be pink?

Remind me ... 4 strings or 5?

I call it Fuschia. You can call it pink. 5 strings - unlined fretless. And yes - they did an amazing job of mirroring on the top. They're beyond builders - they're artisans in my book.

That body in an unlined, fretless 5'er is you, Tat. That will be so cool! Go for it, girl!

edit 1: unlined is where it's at; to paraphrase Cheech Marin, "You don't need no stinkin' training wheels!"

Can't wait to see the finished product!

That is freaking awsome!

I can't wait to try it out at "Boot Camp"!

On other news...

I just got home from the orthopedic surgeon. I seperated my shoulder. I have a prescription for physical therapy.

Sure beats some of the alternatives, Mike.

Looking good Tat! Gonna be a purdy one!

Drummer, separated is not good, but will that heal faster than a fracture or rotator cuff tear? The latter is a beast to heal for sure. I've done both in my goal-tending days.

Glad it's not serious.

I'm real happy with the diagnosis. I'm trying to reach the physical therapist that got me back up to speed after my motorcycle accident in 1991 as he was amazing.

tomydacat · #**352** 01-09-2013, 12:42 PM

any way to make the edges of the bass kind of a HOT PINK around it?

tomydacat · #**353** 01-09-2013, 12:46 PM

just my .02

Tat2dHeart · #**354** 01-09-2013, 01:38 PM

My day is getting better.

Tommy - no extra black in the colors on the body and I elected to stay away from a burst pattern. I've begged and pleaded for a matching headstock, but I don't think that's happening.

All the hardware is black - as is the fingerboard - so she's all pink and black.

etoncrow · #**355** 01-09-2013, 01:50 PM

That really is an amazing piece of wood, Tat.

Thanks, Ed.

Etoncrow - I'm driving to PA when I go up there at end of February. How far are you off my path between Greensboro and Reading? Maybe I can swing through/near your neck of the woods for a hello if the timing works out conveniently for you.

He would be more on your path between Florida and Illinois.

I don't go anywhere near WV on my way back to Illinois. I'm scheduling for some meandering time on the trip to PA and back, so if there's some out of route miles, I'm good with that.
