The final Product. I can't wait to touch it. I shoud have it on Monday or Tuesday. I had Bud put the input Jack in the crux of the lower scoop. I have other production pictures on my office computer. The matching head stock is beautiful. I will post the delivery photos and write a review when I have gotten to know this Axe. THANKS BUD!!!

That's just plain stunning. The fingerboard is gorgeous. Plus the body shape is nice and unique. Those pickup covers look perfect. Everything just came together perfectly on that. That has to be one of the best looking basses I've ever seen. Enjoy it.
 
Thanks Jon118, I had been looking for something unique and yet timeless. I discovered Bud LeCompte on this forum when Quadzilla sold his. I was so impressed and instantly in love with the ST-SS design. This is my first 5 string bass. Bud has been fantastic to work with and I learned a lot from him during the build.
