Hi Mica, I have a couple of questions that I  would prefer to address the via the phone.  
When would be a good time to call you or I believe you have my cell number (214 area code) if you prefer to call me.
 
Thanks,  
Olie

What a beautiful top and back Olie.  Looks like this is going to be an incredibly nice bass.  Enjoy it!

Finished up all the inlay artwork. James will pick up on this project after the last few Christmas miracle deliveries are through. Here's the overall plan:

The black-and-white printout is already impressive, imagine what the actual artwork will look like!
 
Finally some spiritual weight to counterbalance that offending yellow book. ;-)

Hey, Olie!
That's gonna look really Schweeeet. Can't wait to watch the progress! The inlay plan is really awesome, and your Cocobolo is striking!
 
Have Fun, Mike, tho

Olie -  
 
This is truly spectacular.  I can't wait for you to get it  
 
One question:  Assuming the fretboard is ebony, it looks like the Omega is slated to be black mother of pearl?  How well will that show up?
 
Regardless, it is truly a master piece!

John,
 
Black mother of pearl is more of a grey color, it'll show up fine.
