I didn't think about Nino for this, since I associate him more with vintage style instruments. GREAT option. He does great work. That sounds like a fantastic spec!
Yeah, I mean it is sorta Jazz shaped, but doesn't look like a Jazz at all. Mahagony w/ spalted maple and 24 fret ebony neck with full access. Nino definitely does more than just "vintage style" basses.
I don't think a custom Stambaugh would come under $2K, unless maybe if you asked for no top wood and passive. I had him quote me a price and it was between $2500 and $3000 depending on options.
