I saw it. Reminded me of The Shroud of Turin.

Looks kind of like this:

Is that an Elfwich cookie?

Looks like....Never mind.

That's not a beard, he's putting his hands together in prayer or supplication.

Wow.  Wow.  I'd love to hear it.  Wow.  I fear I'll need more than one stocking for this!

[bsjansen]

What are the woods on this beast?

[David Houck]

Hi Bernard, welcome to the board!  The fingerboard is Macassar Ebony.  I believe the top and back are Burl Redwood.  The neck is Maple, Purpleheart and Ebony.  I think the main body is Purpleheart with Maple accent laminates between it and the Redwood.  And I'm thinking the headstock top and back laminates are the Burl Redwood as well.

[bsjansen]

Thanks a lot. That sounds like one tasty hippie sandwich.

[Bradley Young]

The fingerboard is Camatillo.

I went back and reread the thread; you're right, I stand corrected!

[bigbass]

Ah oh...it's on its way.

If this does not make Featured Custom, I don't know what will.

I got to SING!
 
Just once in a lifetime
A man knows a moment
One wonderful moment
When fate takes his hand
And this is my moment
My once in a lifetime
When I can explore a new and exciting land
 
For once in my lifetime
I feel like a giant
I soar like an eagle
As though I had wings
For this is my moment
My destiny calls me
And though it may be just once in my lifetime
I'm gonna do great things
 
I seen that bass in person, and it's a huge work of art that's un-describable in words. PURE REGAL, AND TAKING NO PRISONERS... THIS BASS IS SMACK-DOWN-DROP-DEAD-DANGEROUSLY-LETHALLY BEAUTIFUL.  
 
Perfect 10 - I want my coffee mug of this bass!
