My first Birdsong is being built now. I can't wait to finally own one!...
What he said!!!!You do realize that you have opened Pandora's box....they are severely addictive.

Every day I wake up and think about adding another bass to the order. I want them all!
I have this Corto 2 and a Bliss that I locked in at the sale price on July 4th coming, so that will be a good start.
Both basses will feature black hardware and rosewood fretboards.
Scott told me to make sure I am sitting down when the Bliss arrives. He said I may need to run a few laps around the house before I look at it again.
Edit: Can I become an official member of the Birdsong Club?
Short bass #104 joining my bass family approx. july 31st !!!!

Bobby...you know how my daughter and I feel about Birdsong !!!!Its in our blood...
Short Bass was calling my name !!!![]()
Did you ever get your fretless HY5 ?
Any pic's ? How do you like it ?
I've been thinking about ordering one if I can somehow afford to.
Yes, I received it last week (No. 13-062 in "current builds") and I love it. As far as I know it is the first HY5 fretless Scott has constructed. The walnut goes wonderfully with my mahogany Corto and mesquite Mesquito (both fretless). I have been really busy; maybe some photos later.
Awesome !
Just went to his site and he has this pic in the main page which must be yours:
Great looking bass !
