The blue is just electric. Good things do come to those patient enough to wait.

Rusty, I think you have some new Blue to review!
 
Looks great.

Yes Richard, indeed I do! While the new blue is under review, I will reserve my judgment until I determine the hue. While Mica assures me this color is not true, I have no doubt it will make me Woo Hoo!

So after talking to Mica & playing with some photo filters, she tells me this is closer to the color of the bass & I love it! It is getting clear coat now, so the next round of pictures should be pretty spectacular! I can't wait!

I wish I could bring it to Scotland George, but if you ever come to Texas you can play it!

I got a new camera. Things like basses look better already!  

 

 

   Some of the clear back of the neck catching up now, and the mask removed from the logo. Remember, these are work-in-progress shots, so don't worry about the shiny vs dull areas - it's looking awesome!

OH MY GOD MICA!!!!!!!!! I am honestly at a loss for words!!!!!! These are the pictures I've been waiting for!!!! It is absolutely stunning!!!!! It literally takes my breath away!!!! I'm SO glad the Aqua center didn't work out, this is perfect with the Orca!!! It's a good thing you didn't have it painted when I was out there in July, if I saw this in person I would hug you so hard I would probably break you!! WOW!!!  Just WOW,WOW,WOW!!!! Please tell Bob he has outdone himself on this one, he hit it way out of the park!!!! The scary part is that it is only going to get better when it is complete! David (5a_quilt_top) was right, Perfection Realized!!!!

The front lam of the headstock is just incredible. Although I'm pretty much a natural wood guy, I can't get over how impressive the neck looks against the blue maple back. Wow! I'd really need to rethink a new build if I was doing one.

Rusty,
 I like your choice in keeping neck natural. Is that a standard size Ebony lamenent? This Bass looks like it's going to Roar!
