Tint on, plates on:

Just getting the top clear coats now. If everything goes well, should be about 2-3 weeks until we can ship.

Alan Buddy,
well I must say that back looks much more sexy than the back of my poor man?s Spyder tribute bass......
I am eager to see the front of your Spyder.....

It's been rubbed out:

Pre set up inspection next, then setup, then calibration then final inspection.

Mica,
 
     Beautiful, just beautiful.  Thanks for the pic and update.
 
     I'm headed back to Vermont for school tomorrow.  When it's ready to ship let me know - I believe I sent you that address, but if not, I can send again via email.
 
Thanks!
 
Alan

Snuggled in case:

 
Plan is Monday or Tuesday for the latest departure. Will of course keep you posted offline with all the details.

Alan:
 
Looking good!!!  Congrats!  So what's the story on the tailpiece?  It certainly doesn't look like the standard Alembic bird.

Bill,
 
    They replicate Entwistle's ... individual tailpieces for each string.

Alan,
 
Congrats, one fine instrument! For me though, I think I would have to refer to the owners manual everytime I played to determine what all those knobs and switches do. Simply awesome, enjoy!
