I saw it at the shop on Monday, but Mica beat me to posting a picture. It is gorgeous in person.

Fitting the pickup next week. There's some stuff hanging off the bridge, but I was so happy I could walk up to it and pluck on a string tonight.

awesome. so is a christmas-ish arrival at all reasonable for this?

Wow, that looks like it was worth the wait.

Yeah, thought the pickup would be fitted, but what I thought was your pickup was the master, so in the meantime since my last post, the actual pickup for your bass was crafted and oil finished. Pickup should be mounted any day now. I'm pretty sure that's the very last thing other than boxing it up.

Sounds good mica. Let me know when it gets closer to being ready to ship. Just want to make sure you have the right address and everything.  Hopefully we can make the process of getting this thing all the way across the country as painless as possible.

The pickups are now fitted, and just about ready to load up the electronics.
