Yeah, love the idea of the mini Frog and think it will prove to be very useful and great addition. After getting feedback on the color from my fellow musicians I've decided to go a bit darker with the color and swapped to the Bruno Blue Burst.I'm very interested as well, I like the idea of having a mini-frog next to my 3 (soon 4) frogs

Sadly not my bass, but saw this on Maruszczyk's Facebook page earlier - Green wasn't really on my radar as an opaque finish, but it really is now. I'm thinking that may go very well with a roasted maple neck..
I used to have a similar green P bass, maybe it was the inspiration for this one
and the pickup config is a winner.

Made an account just to post my couch photos I got today! Nothing super fancy here. I have a shoulder injury so I asked for it to be as light as possible. It's chambered, with a slim jazz neck profile. No extra wiring or pots, just straight to the jack (although routing is there in case I decide to add them later if I get annoyed not having them). Nitro finish in what I call "retinal assault magenta."

This is ticking some boxes
Anyone have a headless 6?
No: I have the 5'er and it's great. The 6er should be too.
Oooooooft, I like that!
I wouldn't knock the Xtenders. I have a set--good modern tones. You will be stuck with the shape. Maybe consider a standard pickup shape unless you are sure. If you like the look, go for it. My current Delano favs are the jazz bars (JSBC) and the MCFE MM-shapes. I especially like the jazz bars lately: loud, silent and transparent. The other SBC humbuckers (Soapbar, MM) aren't as transparent. If the clearest, most even-handed humbuckers are what you want, look at JSBC or maybe Nordstrand Zenblades. Xtenders are little more saturated in humbucker modes--I run mine parallel--I would use single coil, which is audibly clearer, but the two Xtenders don't hum cancel in single coil mode with the balance at detent. That is a little disappointing.
What is that neck wood! It's a great match to the retinal assault.
Heads up for the short scalers...I put these 2 up in the classifieds to make room for another order/orders. If they happen to strike anyone's fancy... 
Making some more goodies for the home studio while I wait for Adrian and the team to build my other 2 headless. 
I used some 1/4” birch for the letters and mounted them on some nice Brazilian Cherry.

TK got it right, it is roasted maple with ebony board! Darkest roasted maple I've ever seen, I really like it. Still waiting on my invoice to pay it off though...
