Congrats Chris,

I know the feeling. You just stare and cant understand how wood can actually look so amazing.

I think its worth the 5 hour drive to Patrick's Studio to get him to take some photos of it.

So I took my NS2A to practice last night and although I loved playing it I need to get more out of the pups. It still has the stock ones in it, the ones that just say Spector on them. I'd like to put some real EMG's in it and I guess all I need to do is splice in the power to the pups, but which ones would get me closer to that Spector sound. It has the original Korean HazLab in it which seems to work very well. Just need more out of the pups.

Chris - Congrats! What a great color, and I know what you mean about the amazing wood figuring - I stare at my blue NS-4 with awe & amazement each time I open the case.
Congrats again, and enjoy!
