The black ash one with the contrast gray grain is my favorite. Prettiest ever.

I've heard of Viking mustard, but not mayonnaise!

Sorry, couldn't resist...
Beautiful axe! I hope the honeymoon goes well and you spend many happy years with her.

Thanks lat! Maybe, if we kindly petition them, they'll produce an entire series of condiment models! Katzhup Bass, Szalty Bass, Pieprz Bass, etc... Collect 'em all!!
Stunning bass! The second Mayones is no slouch either. And you like the way it plays and sounds, congrats!
It's like a modern take on a Rickenbacker! Beautiful! Tell me more about it - how's the string spacing? How low does the action go? How much does it weigh?After numerous TB posts nagging everyone to try to get some info on these puppies, I went back to the shop, realized I was in love with it, and took it home before someone else did. It's got everything I want right now (of course that changes by the day), except for free pierogis. I'll get some myself at the market later.
The neck is so smooth with incredibly low action and, while it definitely doesn't have a "vintage" sound, it does offer a lot of variation on what one might call a "modern" sound. (see the 21000 threads on what that even means for clarification!) It does gat vintage-y though when I push it through my DG vintage microtubes! Sweeeeet..... mmmmm......
I'm looking forward to hearing how it sounds in the room with a live situation this week and also tracking in a recorded mix. Will report back!

Yay!!! That is a stunning instrument. The quality is apparent in the pics alone. Yay!!! again. And another Yay!!! This keeps up and I'll be going hoarse. 
Exactly! Thanks for validating what I thought as well! I thought the same thing when I first played it. The body shape and even the asymmetrical headstock is very much reminiscent of a Ric design... Just in a more modern, evolved form. Cool!!
Thanks a lot Jamro!! Go drink some tea and nurse that voice back to health!Yay!!! That is a stunning instrument. The quality is apparent in the pics alone. Yay!!! again. And another Yay!!! This keeps up and I'll be going hoarse.
It looks fine and froms pictures, the quality is also ok, but there is the main thing - how good does it sounds for you.
You have a Rickenbacker - how does it compare? What are the similarities? What are the differences? Does it sound similar?Exactly! Thanks for validating what I thought as well! I thought the same thing when I first played it. The body shape and even the asymmetrical headstock is very much reminiscent of a Ric design... Just in a more modern, evolved form. Cool!!
