Hey! Your bass made it to the setup room today:

 I emailed a larger version of this over the Roger on your behalf.   The wood is unreal:

  There's still plenty of work to do, but it's getting close to leaving the nest.

WOW!
Tales of Topographic Tone Wood, to slaughter a Yes title.
 I feel like I'm looking down on blood red mountains as they come down to canyons at the lower right.
 
Again, just wow!

Thanks, guys.  And, I remember the constant theme on this site that the pictures don't do it justice.  Still, trying to temper the expectation on when it will be done, as the master artisans need time to finish their work.  Patience.  Patience.

Behind the scenes progress.  Just exchanged emails with Roger.  QCB knobs are being constructed.

Here's your bass just before my dad swiped it for the final calibration:

I've run out of superlatives to describe this bass.
