The Suspense Is Killing Me

[MrBassman17]

Just read a short post on Facebook from some shop in the US, saying that they have just received their first shipment of the new Jack Casady 20th Anniversary basses. I have one on pre-order at Zzounds, and have heard nothing! Anyone here seen or heard anything about this? The suspense is killing me!

Wasn't there a NBD thread recently on a red one?

I'm gonna have to trot on down to my local Sam Ash real soon! Where are you located?

Update : Zzounds says they expect shipment on Sept. 12th. When it will get to me is another thing, but I'm anticipating sometime late September. At least I have a light at the end of the tunnel!

Just got the email that it has shipped! Should have it in a week or so - it's coming FedEx, and they're pretty good here....can't wait! NBD in a week!

The wait is over! Here's a few as it was right out of the box! That's not how it's going to stay, though! I've already removed the scratch guard, replaced the strap buttons with strap lock's to accept my favorite strap, and replaced the knobs. For now that's it, except I think replacing the strings to a set of Blue Steel, like I have on my other JCB!
