It's finally here! My first (and only, thus far) bass, LTD B104 strung with DR Black Beauties. Sorry for the crappy pic, will try to get some outdoor shots once the weather cooperates. The bass looks black, but it's really purple.

Here's a picture of all my instruments
(camera died before I could get one w/ just the basses)
But the ones in the picture are my Tune TWB43 PD and Ibanez RDGR (road gear)
the only things I don't really use are the keyboard and slot machine.
This is my WIP Japanese short-scale jazz bass... Since it's about 45 years old, I guess you can call it a relic finish 
. I routed out the original pickup cavities to fit mini-humbuckers, re-wired it, did some neck tweaking, and put it back together.
Also had a bit of fun on the back...
It's currently in 2-string mode as I wait for my new tuners to become un-lost in the mail.

Leave it to Bill...
That thing is pretty cool.
You know me, have to be building some kooky thing...

Nino, that bass reminds me of Sadowsky's bass in the same shape/layout, but IIRC, you are/were a Sadowsky employee, so thats understandable!

A fellow Tune player! Nice bass.
How is that TWB43?
Hey! Thanks, the tune is realy a great bass beats out anything I've seen for the price (under 400) its like everything you'd want from a really nice ibanez soundgear but a little bit different.

That looks disturbingly familiar....
What else can you say about yours?
(BTW BIG CHEETO, 9 strings? Really? I'm impressed. I have trouble keeping up with 4.)
