I'm really looking forward to this bass. Man...2 to 3 weeks...
it's gonna be a long wait.:help::D
Dan

LOL, Dan
2-3 is NOT a long wait! :eek: :p :D
Just ask Ace! :hiding:

I DID just have to be different!
You, Tom and Matt with your stinkin' oly white basses!

EGAD! Don't drag me and my oly white beauty into this! eehehehe. I will happily admit to ripping off Paul Turners style on this bass, so I got no shame!
Actually though, I also had a really hard time deciding between oly white or CAOJ!(...not to mention, some small piece of me craved purple sparkle, although I don't think my "Funk Quotient" is high enough yet to pull it off.)

So, does anyone know what the deal is with those Taxi Cab Yellow stripy AC's at Namm?
 
I gotta be honest, Mine did not come in on time. I believe it was a paint thing as well.I think Jimmy's thing just took a big step up in demand and he's in that prosses of figuring out how to deal with that while running a business while building basses while answering the phone........


I hear you on the frustration though. I hope you can stick it out knowing that he's doing all he can.


I'm not good a reviews and such but after a couple of weeks I got to say I LOVE THIS BASS!

:eyebrow:That's right, Matt....get it all out of your system......:p

It's really not on Jimmy at this point.....he, like me, is just waiting for it to come back from the painter. The most realistic due date he gave me was the middle of next month, so we'll see...... I really can't and don't blame him for being so busy....I think it's great that his shop is really taking off.... I bumped into my old bass teacher the other day and he told me where he was playing that night...What did he pull out of his gig bag at the beggining of the set? A brand new LM-5!......Beautiful too..These things are going to be everywhere soon....
 
what were the specs on your bass Ace?
