I guess Moar is more, ya know?
I'll trust you!
Unless you are referencing to producer Jerry Wexler (RIP) - once when asked what he wanted etched into his tomb-stone, his unhesitant answer was "more bass". (true)
It has arrived ! pics later this weekend when I get some parts on it but you are right , oh man this thing is crazy !
Pics????
No.
I want VIDEO! Glorious 4k with multiple high-powered, focus lights hitting it from multiple angles for maximum shimmer as you play some Bootsie!!!
ha ! yeah ... from a guy still using a iphone 5S 
. This thing is super cool . Y'all better get your parts into Marty before it's too late !

Really. It appears to be a sub-standard DIY job and trans-purple frankly isn't a top 5 favorite colour of mine. And I am one of those folks who pays a skilled finisher to do a 'relic' finish.
(and I do them myself)Like this one by MJT - yah, I know.., Burgundy Mist Metallic is a variant of purple/pink/lavender... but any colour can be cool in the right hands. (and eyes)

He's had a long run (since the '80s) - I totally get it.

You're killin' me Smalls...slap some parts together!
Now that is just bling-tastic!
I'm trying to juice @fretno for his new bass pr0n.
I gotta go to bed dang it.
