Great
 
gorgious
 
oustanding
Just a few words of the feeling I had when I saw these pictures!! I always wasn't preferring maple, but when I see this .........  
I hope you can get some sleep in the coming days, weeks, months, years....... because this is a bass you wanna hold and hear and play on......
 
Good luck, Mattheus

***sigh*** wasn't it enough that we had those elf speakers???
 
But ...nice bass Brother Paul the A one. (That Aaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrgh , must now be an Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah) makes me think of a MK original. There must be a picture somewhere here MK holding one.

The curly maple looks stunning.

This elf-speak sounds just like cajun.

Couldn't place it (Which is disconcerting when you are the one posting it...), but I was thinking of Pogo (Walt Kelly)!  Cajun it is!!
 
Down wit' dem elffffs!
 
(Just kidding - In fact some of my best friends are elves!)

I wonder if there are any minstrel elves.
 
Paul TAO, beautiful bass!  See, all of the agony in waiting was worth it.  Have you gigged with it yet?  What was the reaction?

I've rehearsed a couple of times with it. The drummer loves it - sound and vision but the frontman/guitarist thinks it sounds great but he doesn't like the look.................!
 
I plugged it into a big old bag of bones rig last night at a rehearsal room we don't usually use and it still sounded great.
 
palembic: I think I have a pic of him........I'll post it tomorrow.

That looks like a much smaller body than mine!!
I mean Mark Kings body...........................although his bass looks smaller as well!!!
Maybe the photographer was stood further away when he took the pic!!!
 
D'ya reckon his arse has just fallen out? Looks like it. Either that or he's throwing a tantrum at the wardrobe department for making him go on stage wearing that shirt!
 
I think we need to start a caption competition!!
 
I wasn't speaking cajun......................I was doing a bit of Yorkshire....................John sez t'trouble t'mill!
