Congrats on the NS-5H2JJ! Did you order a blue one? My next one I will probably be on the hunt for...I'd like an old NS-5...1 of 78 made. (:

The fretless is gonna be spalted maple. I am planning on having a fretted BO made and thinking of having it bahama blue with a BEM board. All I know for sure is the fretted will have a MM pickup at the bridge!

I have not seen a Coda Deluxe that I didn't like! ...I wonder if they are ever going to make a 24 fret version of it??

I hoping to be able to have a single MM pup in the 3/4 position like the EBMM's stingray's! If not, I will get a MM in the bridge and a J at the neck! ...either way I need to start saving!

JPS, am I correct on this?

JPS, Todd, Sam (aka Spector Pimp)...do you guys happen to know this answer?
