It's been rubbed out:

Pre set up inspection next, then setup, then calibration then final inspection.

Mica,
 
     Beautiful, just beautiful.  Thanks for the pic and update.
 
     I'm headed back to Vermont for school tomorrow.  When it's ready to ship let me know - I believe I sent you that address, but if not, I can send again via email.
 
Thanks!
 
Alan

Mica,
 
     Any word on my bass?
 
Thanks,
 
Alan

Snuggled in case:

 
Plan is Monday or Tuesday for the latest departure. Will of course keep you posted offline with all the details.

Looks great Al. I'm looking forward to seeing in person at the next get together.

Alan:
 
Looking good!!!  Congrats!  So what's the story on the tailpiece?  It certainly doesn't look like the standard Alembic bird.
 
Bill. tgo

Bill,
 
    They replicate Entwistle's ... individual tailpieces for each string.
 
Al

Alan,
 
Congrats, one fine instrument! For me though, I think I would have to refer to the owners manual everytime I played to determine what all those knobs and switches do. Simply awesome, enjoy!

Alan,  
 
Man, I know your going to be very happy with this bass. I was watching this thread with great anticipation and very high expectations, and they pulled it off, again like a hot knife slicing through butter.  
 
It's not my kind of shape... but I am happy for you... Ha ha ha eh  
 
I am happy for you because of you and because this is a dream coming true for you.  
 
Play it well, and I can't wait to see more pictures when you get it home and or on stage!!!
 
Well what do you know...
 
Your Exploiter and my Toma_Hawk were born around the same time...

Wow! That was certainly worth the wait. As Hal has said, more pictures once she gets home.
