Hey Mica. Any news on where I am in the build process? Any news or pictures would be be great. Thanks very much.

MMMmmm... tasty.  I want to see the top with finish on it! :-)

I meant to post this photo for you about a week ago:

  And I ran across it when I was organizing the photos I took on Friday, including this new one of your bass:

  Still more finish needed, but you can see how great the figure on the Quilted Maple turned out.

Wow indeed!  Another amazing quilt!

Winner winner... chicken dinner.
 
That is amazing.

Wow Mica. It looks really great. Thanks again for taking the time to post these pictures. Very exciting.
 
Still being relatively new to this experience, maybe someone can tell me what is next up in the build process... Is it close to getting the hardware mounted and anniversary electronics stuffed? Thanks again.

After the final finish coats are sprayed on it'll go to rubout and setup.  That's when they'll put all those wonderful electronics in it, install the hardware, and get it ready to rock and roll.  I have no idea how long that bit takes - though I wouldn't imagine terribly long.  It seems like one it hits that last phase they tend to be done and ready to ship within a week or two.

Wow...killer quilt!

[dsalton]

Thanks for the information Brian.

Hi Darrell, thats a fantastic looking bass already. I imagine its gonna be a beauty once all the hardware and electronics are installed.
 
When it's finished and all paid for, I can give you the correct shipping address for it hahahaha.

Mica: The good folks at Bass Central called and said my bass was ready to ship!! Can you tell me when it might go out? Pacing the floor to see what how it turned out!!! Thanks very much

[briant]

Lucky.

This is just a quick snapshot:
 
The gold mother of pearl inlays don't really show up, and it's not the most flattering angle (does this hanger make my bass look fat?), but you can already tell it's a beauty.  
 
Just need to do the final inspection, photos and packing. We're getting this all together over the next couple of days, so we're projecting Monday as the ship date.
