tsk ... tsk ... tsk  
 
Hijacking your own FTC thread?  Shame on you!
 
Bill, tgo
 
P.S.  We're not downtown anymore.  Moved back to the hotel in Yonkers this a.m.  I'll call you.

Jeff:
 
I stopped by the factory on my way back from court in Ukiah today.  Your Tribute was on James' bench.  Every time I see it, it looks even more spectacular.  The Dire Wolf is going to get a run for its money!   Maybe you can learn to wear and play them both at the same time!  Otherwise you may be in for some serious sibling rivalry.  LOL
 
Bill, tgo

Here's what Chip was doing late this afternoon:
 

 
Burl Maple encrusted pickups, anyone?
 
No, I've got to talk to my dad still about your electronics requests. This I will do very soon and get back with you, along with a proposed layout.

jacko

Wow. I hadn't realised you were going for wood pickup covers Jeff. Presumably you're having a wood truss rod cover too. This is going to finish up being one very special bass. You'll need to get Burl Maple knobs made up too.

Your pickups are catching up nicely in spray:

Look really sweet!
 
Last time we spoke on the phone about your electronics was a while ago. That night is when I took my mom to the emergency room over he broken elbow/hand, and so I must admit I'm foggy on the details. As it's quickly approaching the time to get the electronics layout done, built and drilled, we need to speak again about the functions you wanted (or if you've come up with anything new!). Let me know what's a good time to chat.
