I would have to consider leaving this bass at home instead of gigging it, I would be so scared it got marked or dinged.
Awesome colour and the chrome hardware looks a great contrast to the finish.

Okay, it's been five hours since Rusty's last post. Does 9-1-1 take from 200 miles away?

I'm guessing he's in a state of shock.  It's also difficult to type when playing...or drooling.

I'm Baaaaaaaaaack!!! Sorry to keep everyone waiting but I literally just got home from Austin. I spent 2 hours at Guitar Rez playing & drooling & the the drive home was 4 hours with traffic, so I'm finally home but haven't had a chance yet to play it through my amp to really see what it sounds like. My initial reaction is I LOVE IT!!!!!!!! I will give a detailed reply after I ve played it through my amp, but I will say this, the amazing marbling if the Quilted Maple in conjunction with the gorgeous blue paint does a very good job hiding the drool!!! Stay tuned......film at 11 :-)

Not just a bass, this is an Alembic!

Rusty, I can attest to the fact that amber-tinted quilted maple also hides drool.  
 
lol  
 
Gorgeous bass.  Enjoy!
