Yeah I have ordered two - both are beautiful basses with solid craftsmanship. Both times I talked with Adrian directly. He is short but courteous. Don't expect progress pictures or really any communication unless you initiate it. Your couch shot will be on time and it will look and play great! And compared to other places like Kiesel, you have huge freedom in selection and builds.
 
Thanks for the input folks. Does anyone have a walnut body? Wondering how heavy they are. TIA

I actually discussed a walnut body for my 6 string Sputnik with Adrian with the same concern and he recommended I went with a walnut top and a swamp ash body. Eventually, I went with the bass as suggested. It weighs 4.1 kg with the ultralyte tuners and the Hipshot aluminum bridge.
 
Before I ordered my Frog a few years ago, I was thinking about this. :roflmao:

My Moped P5 weighs 6.5 lbs. If weight is important to you, specify this as a priority.....best to go with alder or swamp ash (you can spec a walnut top which will not affect weight significantly) and spend for the ultralight tuners/bridge as well as chambering of the body.
