One correction. I fat fingered the year in the thread title. As you can see from the build info birthday, this is a 1998, not a 1999.

Thanks Loch. A terrific bass. It only took 3 days to get to Australia but had to have a vaction period in Australian Quarantine. Apparently wooden imports go through this.

It was recieved in good contion, well packed and with no damage. It plays well no unwanted noise. Its up to me to make sure it plays well I suppose!

Thanks for a very welcome addition to my instrument family.

Regards

Derek

Congratulations Derek,

The bass looks lovely and must sound sweet.
It is good to see another Aussie in the house.

... and we now have a very nice 2000 Oldsmobile Alero for my daughter to drive.

Enjoy the bass Derek, it's a wonderful instrument!
