    Wow, that's VERY nice! I'm guessing it's a 33" scale MG model, correct (I see the functionless-yet-ever-popular extended B headstock :D) What's the string spacing on it?
     
  6. There should be a rule regarding basses of that quality and cell phone pics!! :mad:

    Congrats, now take some GOOD photos!!! :D

    maple neck
    ebony board
    mg style layout

    That's the best reason I've ever heard for wanting one :D Get some clips up when you can- I'm sure it sounds great.

    Well, that is just...rad, for lack of a better adjective. Do enjoy.
     
  16. Very nice. Be sure to get us some pics when you get a nicer camera. Somehow I think it's way better in person.
     
  17. more pics, please !!!:D

    Lovely!!!

    To catch a butterfly.... dish out $6500 - $8000 USDs, wait until you metamorphose into a crazy person cause the thing takes so darn long to complete and you too can catch a butterfly.

    Please let us know if it was worth the $ and the wait.

    Congrats. The bass is stunningly beautiful!
     
  19. What kind of music will you be playing with it?

    You'd think that because this guy can afford a Fedora he'd be able to buy a decent digital camera. :p
