Flip,
 
It's Thanksgiving today in the States- I doubt anyone will be in the shop until Monday.

Hey Toby, thanx!
 
I hope to hear something next week...  
It's better to hear that it will take two more years to complete than to hear nothing at all...
 
Waiting will be a lot easier if we can get the 12th fret inlay design done and the case case settled (standard or roadcase)

...anything?

Flip, sorry if this gets you excited, but wasn't sure how to contact you, i was just checking out some Damaged Justice clips on youtube from Illinoise and wanted you to send me an e-mail or post on here somewhere if ya'll come to North Carolina :-D

P.S.-you guys are awesome

Flip, you should have an email from my mom with some detail review to get your bass moving again.  
 
I am getting a quote for the case, but that will take a few days still. Once I have the information, I will let you know.

Check!
 
I also made a special picture request: I would love to see a picture from the back of the neck and one from the back of the headstock.
It would really make my day if you let your photographic skills loose again on those parts of my bass ;-)
 
@ Taylor: Thanx dude!  
No worries, this was an effective way to contact me. I got the message, thanx!

Back in carving after the front and back routing were completed:

  And one of Jack sanding away at the peghead:

YES!!! this is getting me sooooo hyped for when this beast is finished. Flip, I'M SO JEALOUS!!!
 
~Taylor

YES!!!2  
Jack is doing something wrong though... Superunknown, wearing a mask and still identified! :-)
 
Almost ready to get blackened I guess?
 
Cheerz & thanx!

Flip,
 
are you getting your initials inlaid on the fret board?
 
~Taylor

Just a quick preflight check... We want to drill holes, and since there's only one chance to get it right, please confirm that the June 4, 2009 layout is still the plan.

Quite possibly the last time you will see the bass unblackened:
 

 
With the sealer coat, you can see what a great piece of Flame Maple you've got.

Omg, burned right through my display :-)
 
Thanx!

Check, check, double check :-)
 
June 4, 2009 layout is still the plan indeed ;-)

I have a feeling there will be more holes in this bass tomorrow than there are today :-)
