  Of course, there's still a long road ahead, but there it is to ponder!

Vinnie-
 
You're gonna LOVE it when the amber hits that flame maple.  I'm sure you've checked the custom color page and seen the Elan they built for me, but if not ;)

I saw your bass hanging out in the final curing area, so I'll get you some new shots this week while we're just waiting for things to dry.

NICE !! Thanks for the updates Mica ! Did you get my email about the Q-switch. I was not sure by the looks of the control layout as to whether or not it was drilled for.  
 
Thanks again !!!!!!!!!!!!

Looks like the Q switch is there, the LED switch will be hand drilled in setup.
