Hey, I spied a bass when I went to the shop:  

  Wow, this looks nice:  

  Good enough to eat!  

  I'll let you remain vaguely discomfited at the idea that I actually licked your bass, Jeff.

alas poor yurik.......
seems one of the elvis' had too much egg nog and dropped one of my pickups. no damage to the pickup or more important the wood cover. needs some tidying up on the finish and there is time needed to cure
so if not this week - def next wed
maybe hanukah harry will make a late appearance sat at my step kids house?

Egg nog indeed! Here's that back view I was telling you about on the phone earlier today:

  and those kinder, more gentle bridge saddles:


flaxattack

is that a new style saddle? i wasnt expecting this at all, swweeeeeet
looks neat
boy that is some luster on the back mica
i love how it gets dark at the edges

flaxattack

was it egg nog
or egg weed?
lol

A coupla more pictures so you can really see what's going on with your bass:

 

  The saddle is made the same way as usual, just the traditionally square ends of each are lightly filed to round them off a little so they won't scratch your delicate mitts when you play over the bridge like you do. Glad you like it!
