Great pic, Graig!
Not just a bass, this is an Alembic!

I'm digging the bass quite a bit. One further question. All the switches are quite scratchy, and one cuts off the volume totally. Any cleaning advice? The volume pot isn't so hot either.  
 
Thanks so much.

I've used this from Radio Shack.  I don't know if it's the best choice, but if you have a Radio Shack near by you can probably pick it up today.

I use Caig's Deoxit. You should be able to pick it up at Radio Shack or other electronics oriented stores. It should work on both the switches and volume pot.  
 
Note that the solo switch by the neck is a standby switch.
