dang dude his is pretty cool also, but i like your's because it's based off Jason's, but has some upgrades done to it for more tonal control, congrats Flip. i would love to have a 5 string, 3 pickup Elan almost exactly like yours(classic taper for me though) you lucky dog. hope that i'll be able to steal some of your ideas(as for the electronics) whenever i get a real job ;-). play her well, for all of our sakes :-)

At long last  your new baby will be on it's way home.  
Great case for it too.  I look forward to some you tube clips of your new bass too.

Seeing this done doesn't help my ever increasing desire to have my new black custom done and in my hands.
 
That's a gorgeous bass. `m/ `m/

This is one bass I'm very glad to see completed headed to someone I think is very deserving. Congrats, Flip.

With this one exception, I break my silences this one time.  
 
Peace, and Love

The picture of the bass in that case is pretty impressive.

Allrighty then! :-)
 
@ Mica: I'm sorry I made you and crew let go of this beauty, I can be a little ruthless sometimes :-)
 
Should I make arrangements for pickup this weekend or would that be a little optimistic?
 
I hope you have some terabytes of free space left on the club's server (watch out for the showcase section)
 
@ Danno: Me is honoured to (almost) have a bass that's like a sister to yours, sharing the same dry rack and stuff. Awesome!  
 
Very keen to see yours in full glory. Will she be seen on stage soon?
 
Greetings en thanx Y'all!

A lot of this is going to depend on customs.

Customs have been nice to me :-)  These pictures were taken by Edwin (aka EvH)
