Rusty's Custom Series II 5-string

[slawie]

Congratulations on both the bass and more importantly your grand-daughter.
She looks safe and content in your arms.
Rusty, she has your hair!
It is with eager anticipation that I also await the pictures of finished Orca in situ and on stage.
God bless your family

Thanks Slawie! God has indeed richly blessed my family, especially this week!

Congratulations on your new grand-daughter, Rusty. Grand-kids are great! Also, congrats on your other new baby still being finished. The blue looks fabulous!

Thanks Rob!

Your grand daughter looks beautiful as does your bass. I'm surprised you somehow didn't convince the parents to work either blue or orca in to her name though you haven't shared her middle name with us yet. Now that would have been a real reason to name a bass (or a grand daughter).

Brian, the Blue Orca is a tribute to my wonderful wife who loves Orca's & encouraged me to get this bass. My grand daughter is Zoey Nichole. I think it might have been tough to get my son to convince his wife to name their first born after a whale! LOL! Thanks for the compliments!

[rustyg61]

Thanks Wolf! She is most definitely precious! They only live 45 minutes away but they might as well be on another planet because I want to see her & hold her every day but can't!

Hey Mica, hope you're feeling better now. Does the Blorca have knobs yet? Could this be the week I have been waiting for when I get to see a completed picture of my bass? ;-)

Congratulations Rusty on becoming a grandfather and also soon to become the father of a superb bass.
 
I hope you have enjoyed your long Orca pregnancy and that the birth is not painful.... :-)

Thanks Jazzyvee! I waited 53 years to become a grandfather, so I guess the year wait for my Europa wasn't too bad! It was exciting watching the build unfold & all the pieces come together. I can't wait to see the final photo with all the electronics & a full shot to see the tuners & peghead with the rest of the bass. The only painful part of the delivery will be the long drive to Austin to pick it up! That will be the longest 3 hours of my life! When my SCSD was delivered to my house I had to wait 3 hours for my wife to get home from work before I could open the box, so that may have been harder because I had the bass in my house but could only stare at the box while waiting on my wife to get home.

Hoping for Friday pictures of my completed bass!
