And Turtle: oh yes, I'm counting!

I'm so jealous! Nice choices you made and the result is stunning. I would certainly call it a keeper, congratulations!
Just thought I'd add once again that your new Jazz is off the charts beautiful. I realize this is probably a stupid question but does the idea of gigging with it (I.E. taking it out and about) make a LITTLE bit nervous (kind of like new car paranoia?)....ha ha ha
Thanks again ChadPJ.
FedEx delivered the bass this afternoon, and I opened the package about 30 minutes ago. The bass is so nice that, yes, I will have some apprehension about taking it out. But that's what I bought it for....to play it! So I will just have to be careful and try not to bang it against anything! Fortunately, I am the careful type and I take VERY good care of my gear (almost to the point of being anal retentive).
And I had to laugh when you mentioned the new car thing. The only time in my life I have ever bought a brand new car was in late 2006 when I bought my 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser. I remember driving it home from the dealership. I didn't want any other cars on the road to get within three blocks of my new car!
Awesome! I'm super jealous.
Did they have that in stock (I check the Guitar Gallery frequently, never saw it), or did you request it?

You should make your Nigel Tufnel Fender Bass VI (it can't be played, pointed or looked at....ha ha ha)
Thanks Anthony and VCN!
VCN: Sweetwater had one in stock over a year ago, but it sold before I had a chance to buy it. So, I plugged in my e-mail address to be notified automatically when the next one came in. After about six months, I just figured they would never get another one in. Then, a week ago, out of the blue, I get an automatic e-mail from SW informing me that they now have one in stock. I took one look at the pics, and I said "that's mine". I bought it right then and there. It was probably on their website for no more than an hour.
