NBD '64 Fender Jazz CS Heavy Relic

I don't like relics or color or those particular colors normally, but somehow that all works together really well. Probably the most realistic factory relic I have ever seen. Axetreme Creations does an amazing SRV strat that is almost miraculous in it's authentic look but is the only thing I can think of that comes close in terms of a relic job. Congrats.
 
Oh I know it :). I invest all my extra money into gear, which includes 4 modulus basses. If I ever go all out on a precision bass, it's gonna be something like this. Definitely heavy relic, no doubt. Just hope I can find one used instead of paying direct custom shop price. But I know if I wanted it my way, I'd have to custom order it.

Sweet relic! It's heavy but it really works.
What kinda rosewood are they using now?

Love to know how they control that finish checking. Heat/cold cycle, cold compressed air, or even razor blade. Don't know how CS does it.

+1 the headstock request. That's gotta be cool!
