*DROOL*
I love the little cutout on the knobs. First time I've seen that. Man you must be dying with anticipation!

I agree with all of you. Sheldon didn't like how the old knobs worked with the body lines, so he scratched them and made new ones. I am ever more impressed with his dedication and attention to detail.

What a great solution- easy to see the position, easy to feel the position in the dark, and looks great.
nice appointments you've got there...
my dad just got a Larrivee jumbo acoustic in mahogany, it's got that reddish hue, and the flamed maple binding is just about the most beautiful thing I've seen. I see you have this motif going too, it really looks nice.
Like most basses with superior aesthetics, yours induces the "Dude Syndrome" response with me:I wants ta lick that thing!
er, oops. Did I say too much?

Someone send this link to the W-guy. 
This is the most impressive attention to detail I have seen, I've just turned a horrible green color of envy.
I congratulate you, however grudgingly...

Simply great work! Can't wait to see the finished bass - and I bet it will sound and play every bit as good as it will look.
You've gotta be anxious!
Congrats in advance!

Funny story, a buddy of mine came into my room and saw the picture and thought that the pickup shells were cookies.
Mmmmm....cream filling...
Thanks for the comments guys, I really am getting anxious to see and hear this thing complete. Sheldon tested the FD-1 6 string pickups in a test bass today. He seems to be more than impressed with them.
Oh, sorry Adrian. I know this is a soft spot for you.
