I got an email from Keith today. He confirmed that it indeed looks great and only a few days from being done. He said he'd check it out after it's together and Plek if needed.

They do, his name is Keith.
The best/worst thing about visiting the shop is now I’m certain I want a Classic PBass after putting one in my hands. I should probably wait until my current build is done before starting another one right?…..
I got this from my wife for Christmas a few years ago. My "Pino" bass. It's an amazing bass.
Did you happen to see a blue stained quilt top LG3005 routed for jazz pickups?
Yeah, I’m probably going to be a copy cat. That’s pretty much exactly what I want. What pickup do you have in there? I’m not sure I want a Aggie. You have flats on it correct?
I have a Honey Badger in mine. Greg ordered it that way from the shop. Seems fine. And yes, I have TI Flats on it.
I didn’t, but it was a short visit and I am always respectful of what I take pictures of. I would not want to inadvertently post a picture of something Keith does not want out in the public yet, or that a buyer wouldn’t want photographed/posted without their permission.
I am an LG man myself, I prefer the "Used" Roscoes with "Bart on Bart" action. My Century 6 string was fun to play though.

The green one is the headstock for my new build. 
That looks awesome Nate!
That’s some awesome figuring too!
A “few days” is exactly 2weeks!Wow!
A few days is even less than two weeks!
We're seriously looking into add a whole home humidifier to our house. We have a super high efficiency furnace, and that thing seems to suck all of those moisture out of the house during the winter. We're sitting at 20-30%. We've got humidifiers in the bedroom and the music room.
The only concern I have is the ducts getting too humid and having mold issues.
You may want to look into UV lamp(s) in your exhaust side of your air handler.
With the whole-building humidifier that we have here at Rocket, the fan actually continues blowing for a little while after the unit stops producing steam. I assume that is to dry out any moisture left in the ducts.
The humidity issue is interesting as it relates to temperature. I thought that more humidity was needed as temps decreased. At the beginning of the heating season when temps are mild, a higher humidity rate is recommended. With more extreme outdoor cold temps a lower humidity rate is recommended.
If the indoor humidity is too high with extreme cold, condensation begins to form on window interiors. That is to be avoided in terms of mold growth on window sills. This occurs due to temperature differential of indoor and outdoor window surfaces. As far as heating ducts, the humidified warm air is much lower in humidity than summer AC air. I've not heard of a furnace based humidifier causing mold in heating ducts.

Well, we have hot water heat and ceiling ducted AC. I suppose I could try room humidifiers, but they never seem to work well. We have a dehumidifier in the basement - for the summer. Actually, my basses don't seem to mind. The necks stay good. No fret sprout - particularly after being Plek'ed. Just lucky I guess.
