Ok all kidding aside your new bass looks very inviting and must be inspiring to to play.
I would like to ask you about the dots and lines on the side of the neck. White on a pau ferro finger board are often hard to see in when played with low stage lighting.

This is exactly what my Fender players series Jazz bass is like.
Your white markings show up great on your dark fingerboard but they look like you have placed them

Sweet! You should post that last pic on the Ultimate Cat Thread:

The lines are where the frets would be and where the lines would be if they were on the front. I like them a lot. I had a Birdsong with them and an Ibanez Portamento. They're good for reference but not as distracting as full lines IMO.
