And it was a steal. Thanks, Nino. Can't wait to play it.

Deharma,

Absolutely gorgeous.

Sorry couldn't resist the opportunity to post some pics.

A couple of questions for you guys. Does Nino fill orders for guitars? My guitarist has been looking at a warmoth forever, but couldn't do it himself, and for some reason, I never thought about Nino until just now. Also, if you guys dont mind me asking, how much does Nino ask? I would love to have my own soon, but don't know how much I would be able to pay, and would aslo like to know how much he would charge for the guitar if he would do it.

If you have questions about pricing, please email me and/or visit my website.

Beautiful bass man. I really want a bass made by Nino. I'm about to email him specs for one just to look at pricings. If the price is right then I may put in an order by this summer. If they're higher then I wanted, then I'll wait a little longer. We'll just see.

By the way, does your bass have a 24 fret fretboard? None of the pictures had a clear view of the whole board, so I couldn't tell, but thats how it appears.

Those "Big Singles" look pretty interesting, how would you describe their sound? They're humbuckers, right? While I do like the look of Jazz basses I've become so used to humbucking pickups I'm sure the hum of single coils would drive me mad.

That blueburst finish is really what sold me, and this turned out to be a case of some guys trying to snipe an eBay auction from me, which, especially in this case, was a serious no-no! :rolleyes:

Sadowsky pickups and pre on a bass that my photographer girlfriend and the graphics designer at the newspaper where I work both said was absolutely beautifully-finished?

I'm sold, and you couldn't have outbid me if you TRIED!

The Blue bass is parts I bought (neck and body) off of jja412 and I put it together.

It's kinda a "Valenti" (Warmoth neck and body, HipShot, BAII, etc, built by me) but it's not really a "Valenti". In any case, it's a great bass. :)

I know there were some questions about my Valenti 5.
However, I don't want to hijack dharma's post.
hopefully I will get some updated photos, and open a new thread. Mine is about a week from completion. Meanwhile,
dharma enjoy.
