If you're looking for a Gaboon Ebony top you could also have a look at the one that I have reserved for my upcoming Imperial - my final lock in is in 2 month or so and I will not go with an Ebony top (I've changed my mind 1-2 month after my order) - the top is even big enough to be used for a solid top (if I remember correctly) ... just ask Jason if you're interessted

J | yeah - so I guess if he's looking for a top like that and has not reserved one yet - why not offering him this rare opportunity
It would be a pleasure for me

Had one of my guitar players call this tune at a gig so I sight read the changes (had never heard it). Looked it up afterwards, found this version, and just shook my head thinking about what I had played  "James"- Pat Metheny, Michael Brecker, Christian McBride, Antonio Sanchez - YouTube

My bass go no Plek'd.
| Thanks Tim, I'm going try and get a ramp like yours. I bet the set-up & action on your bass is 1st class even without Plek.
