that coda is amazing. congrats! I wonder if they'd do a deluxe in a solid finish. I like the no pickguard look and the control layout better than the standard pickguard and control plate look.

Sweet! That was taken in 1999. I was looking at that photo and I had dual Mitsubishi 900U Flat CRT monitors back then. Those things were the bomb! I bet they threw enough radiation out to cook a burrito!

Good God, man. That's unreal looking. Some mighty fine Spector porn there. Congrats and Enjoy!

Beautiful top. Love the color.
Just be careful moving it indoors too quickly! I'd hate for that finish to crack...

Enjoy it. It looks super sexy.

I'm going to be left with the guts from my ReBop, and I have an old Fender MIM P-bass that has a bad J-bass Bridge route & is gutted. What do you guys think about putting the 40HZ's, the TonePump & bridge in my P? Give it a Fender Rebop kind of flair. Think it would sound similar?? I know the pickups are oversized, but I'm going to have to cover the bad bridge route with a 4" pick-up anyways...
Any thoughts on this, guys? Would it sound similar to a Rebop?

Thanks JPS! Hope to use a good camera other than my iPhone 4 when we get some sun.

Man that Coda 5DLX looks awesome with the maple and crown inlays. I would love that bass in the ultraviolet finish.

Congrats ice!

Well I know that. I just remember when Burn My Eyes was being advertised as the debut album from Rob Flynn's "new" band. I knew Vio-Lence first.

Yes that makes me feel old.
