Holy smokes......
 
Absolutely Beautiful.  Congrats Rami.  You've added another masterpiece.

Hey Rami, shall I try it first..... (I'll never give it back...)

That is magnificent! Congratulations Rami.

Rami - your bass is a truly awesome instrument. I was in Santa Rosa on Tuesday and saw it in person. It is larger than many of the other instruments around the shop and has a commanding presence. Congratulations!

I was trying to come up with the right word to describe this beauty, but I think Brother Bracheen got it right....
                 *Magnificent*
Congratulations, Rami.

Thanks guys,
 
I must admit to being a little intimidated by it myself.  It's almost more art than instrument.  An Alembic showpiece, like the others.
 
Rami

Maybe one day when it's just the wife and myself .... oh to dream.

Rami, That's a fantastic instrument - I really like the continuous wood trussrod and pickup covers.

Rami:
 
Another stunning beauty of a bass, and I would sure love to see more pictures.  I also look forward to hearing your description of the tone of the bass and how it compares to your other ebony masterpieces.  By the way, is this now your heaviest bass?

Hey Jeff,  
 
Thanks for the kind words.  It may appear as a Featured Custom, so you may get some spectacular pictures and detailed descriptions of it.  If not, I'll post my own home pictures once it arrives.  I'm certainly expecting it to be my heaviest Bass.  After the Dark Prince and Evil Twin, I have a pretty good idea of the tone I'm expecting from it; lots of resonance and incredible sustain.  I'll have to wait until I actually have it in my hands to accurately describe it though.  Maybe Valentino can describe it now.
 
Rami

Rami,
 
You are living the dream.  I hope you left some money for food and clothing.  This bass is beautiful.  Your conception of the perfect bass is right on.  I respect your style.  Very, very well conceived and executed.  Nice.
 
John

The tone is...low end, low end... and more low end. In other words (if I haven't been clear enough) it has massive low end.  
 
I think when I weighed it it came in just under 15lbs.
 
Valentino

Good grief, just looking at that baby makes you want to duck down low. It looks like a fearsome weapon, a stealth bass. A magnificent piece, you will probably have to sneek up on her so as not to get bitten. Well done!
