As Chef said, Fran Diaz will take care of your number. It is pretty late in Spain now.
In the meantime, welcome to the club
Hello All!
My first time back to TB in over a month. I've had a whole lot going on in my world lately and have not been around.
Due to a rather HUGE amount of medical bills, I need to get rid of some gear......
Just a head's up for all you brothers......I am going to sell my Will Lee. It's in as new condition and kicks butt! If I weren't in the boat I'm in at the moment, I wouldn't be even considering selling this bass!
If you are interested, PM me. I'd rather it go to someone here than elsewhere if possible!
Thanks!

I didn't mean to mislead. I haven't placed an order yet but I've decided I will and hope to very soon. It's not only the down payment but I need to know I can follow through with the balance. I have a lot on my plate these days.
I'm often obtuse on the Internet.
Cory, that really sux! I hope that it's nothing too serious. I had noticed that you had been away for awhile. Our thoughts are with you and hope that things get better.
I hope that you don't mind that I posted this.
My thoughts exactly. Considering the single coils are based on 60's Fender pu's (correct me if I'm wrong), how could it NOT sound "Fendery" in passive mode? Now, I've never actually owned a vintage Fender but I've always been curious about what the difference would be. I have also never played my Sadowsky passive while with the band.
Well, you guys have to make sure to order it with clay dots, otherwise we all know it won't sound vintage.

My '88 Sadowsky sure looks like it has clay dots!
Ah, Okay. That's a different story. I'd kind of like to hear that one in action, now...

My wife had cancer........
Thanks for all the kind words and thoughts.
Yup, that's my WL. It's a smoking bass for sure!
Heads up on my now For Sale NYC UVPJ4 in classifieds.
See the link in my sig. Thanks for looking.
Definitely buy Cory's bass first though...

I just talked with Kevin about ordering a left handed Will Lee Sadowsky. I'm really excited, but there are so many choices to make...ash/alder body, maple/rosewood neck, plain or fancy top, etc. I'm leaning towards the alder/rosewood setup but not completely sure.
The big downer is an 8 month delivery time. That is going to be the longest wait in history! And then there is the dreaded left handed curse...a $300 upcharge. Oh well, what do you do when you want the best!
As soon as I make these decisions, I can place the actual order. Then, in 8 months I'll be able to ask for a number

Think of it this way...
8 months and you know exactly what you're getting; As opposed to 9 months of wait and you have no clue about what you're getting.
Hi
The Will Lee basses kill! You'll love it and it will be worth the wait. Mine is ash/maple, maple top

I really love the look of BartmanPDX's Will Lee. I'm thinking of a '59 Burst with a Maple Burl/Alder body and a Brazilian Rosewood neck. The Maple Burl and the Brazilian Rosewood neck will make the bass a bit expensive, but hey, I've got 8 months to save for the extra. 
For those of you that know more about this than me, would this combination sound ok? I'm really nervous making this decision.
