Barry,
 
Ck the upper horn back ...is that a Pacman (evil) eye?
Seriously, this project only becomes more stunning as time goes by. It should look incredible with all the little THG embellishments you're doing. I'm surprised Rami isn't all over this thing as well. It appears to be right up his alley. I know he likes incredibly high weight and extended scale, but he likes all his basses to be dark, dense woods like this one.

Yeah Kevin,I thought the same thing at first then got distracted by the absence of it's brother on the other aide of the pond and then further absorbed by the flamed PH on the neck next to it and then further up the neck from there.Like I said I don't mind.As one thing diappears two others take it's place.Definitely one of God's many,many gifts though nature.Another of His gift's are the skills and passion the folks at the bigA have in bringing it all together.Rami's probly got a girlfriend and that's why we haven't heard from him.We'll just have to wait for him to sneak in a comment when she's not around!LOL!

Some new shots while we wait for calibration:  

 Didn't think you got to see this part up close yet.  

 Hey - these are complete with installation fingerprints and everything!

It's just a matter of Ron the Wizard's magic wand being waved over your bass, with a little faerie dust thrown in for good measure, and this puppy's done! It looks awesome, Barry!

Thanks Kevin,I guess the finger prints make it an anointed bass LOL.I got a nod of approval from my oldest which is same as getting the oscar,a lifetime achievement,winning a grand prix etc.It'll be nice when she's here next to her brother.Has yours got a gender yet?After these latest pix I'm more towards a female.I guess we'll try for a date once mine comes in,say 1st or 2nd week in August.

Hey Val welcome back!The bass was supposed to be on Ron's bench a week ago but who knows.I also promised Mica I wouldn't bug her for two weeks.I never said I wouldn't bug you!LOL!I'm looking for some more pictures although,Mica's response would be there's nothing else to see until it finishedI disagree I haven't had any action on this post in two months.How about some new pictures to pass the time?
