thanks Charlzm, Jen's really is an artist at his craft and he is actually a pretty funny guy too. Talked with him this year at NAMM and he explained that the bottom one was a "one off" and that I should hold onto it. Thanks for the kind words 
Tom, you have a fantastic collection but THIS is my piece of Heaven. Believe me, I've never been a P bass guy, in fact I only own two J's 
but when you first posted this baby a few months ago I was like 
I need one of those! In fact she is one of my favourite wallpapers 
Beautiful combination, white & gold plus the tinted neck... man... just lovely. Congrats!

Thanks man.
Unfortunately a previous owner stripped the original finish off of that one.
Oh well, thanks to it' shape it remains devilish without the black and red hues.

I want one
I like that walnut Jazz Bass. I used to own a matching Mustang guitar/bass with that finish. Miss 'em.
My wife took this picture with a technique she calls "light painting". She takes the picture in complete darkness, tapes up the end of a flashlight to let only a small amount of light through, and actually paints the thing with it for a minute or so using short bursts of light. I think It turned out cool!!!
This one is really special...
It was given to me in stripped down, horrible condition (no fretboard, cracked neck, no truss rods, no hardware, not even a screw or shred of wire) by a local builder who had been holding on to it for about ten years in that shape. He said that he wanted to fix it up, but didn't ever get around to it, so he gifted it to me. It took me two years to finally finish it up, and I LOVE this bass.
I went in a different direction rather than trying to restore it to original Ric specs. I didn't want to do what has already been done many times before in the Ric factory, so I got creative.
Anyways, this thing sounds fantastic, and plays like warm butter.
Would love to know what you guys think!
