This black pearl is not only the grey color, it's got fantastic color flash:

The cross is also well underway:

This is the backside actually.

Very nice, thanks Mica. Th Black Pearl looks awesome. I can hardly wait to see the Dove.

You won't have to wait much longer, some of the work on the Dove has started:

That's just the first cut on the main wing. And the cross is now bound in sterling silver:

Olie-

Looks like your bass is spending some quality time at the Santa Rosa chapter of the Ron Paul fan club*. Shouldn't be long now before she's in your hands.

* James' bench at the shop has Ron Paul stickers and pamphlets on it.

Inlays are getting sunk into the fingerboard now:

Home stretch time!

Looks like James is doing a practice run in chocolate.

Hey Olie, it that a rosewood fingerboard? I hope it's not the chocolate option. Very tasty, but they are really affected by warm weather! lol.

Bill, tgo

It's supposed to be ebony! I think it looks odd from some dust from the router. (I HOPE).

It's Ebony, nice and black. Didn't do any color correction, this photo looks a little yellow on my monitor.

I was pretty sure it was Mica, Thanks.

Olie
PS You're up awful early aren't you.

lbpesq · « **Reply #115 on:** January 04, 2008, 08:23:58 AM »

Think maybe there's a short person that has something to do with that? hehehehe

Bill, tgo

Maybe the short man is having a bad effect on the sleep cycle, indeed. Normally I get sub-second response when I email at midnight.

Been so long I don't remember. Both my short people are in their 20's.

Got something very nice for you to see:

Keep in mind that you're still seeing rough frets. This is right after the frets went in. We love it!

I'm usually up by 6:30 and beat Erik by a good hour or so - he's what they call a good sleeper. While it's true the phone isn't answered until 10am, we're getting work done much earlier than that, and staying much later than 4pm.

The Dove is awesome indeed. I'm blown away with how good it came out. I'll be dancin' on the roof when I get this little dish in my hands.

Thanks Mica,

Olie
