Here's the top.
 
Awesome tops on the new batch..... and they are all ball basses. It will be cool to see how 4 ball basses compare.
I am in the middle of spec'ing out my fretless with cliff right now. I have been tossing around a bunch of ideas and cliff has humored me on all of them. :bassist: talk about customer service. We finally narrowed it down.
It is going to be pretty much them same thing as my upcoming fretted bass but with some different woods and a different take on the audere preamp.
I will attach the last rendering Beav did of it for me. It will be figured purpleheart and ebony on the top and all purpleheart on the back.
Glad I am going to get the order in soon... I was hoping to get it in my hands before summer of 09. :ninja:

Wow, I wonder when Cliff went past a year? It seems he's been right around 9 months for the last two years or so. Well that can only mean business is good!
:hyper:

I ordered my sixer a little over a year ago and it only took 4-5 months to build. I'm glad Cliff is doing O.K.!!!

I loved cliff's work so much on the 4 stringer I got (see page 5 i think? maybe 6?) I decided to go for something a bit more exotic.:hyper: This puppy should be arriving Wednesday! I'll let you guys know more then!

I'm amazed that these basses even go on the market. This particular one was for sale from a double bassist who didn't quite make the jump to electric. It's make of a curly Makore body and a burled thuya top. The neck is maple with Maple with Panga and the fretboard and pickup covers are Bloodwood. I'll bet she smokes :bassist:
