A volute!  Way to go Jeff.  The ph and ebony look striking together.  Now the journey has begun.  Enjoy the next few months as you watch your young 'un evolving.  
 
Bill, tgo

guys
this is news to me too!!!.....i didnt even notice it
shows ya what i know- i guess val had his hands in this one- but checking greggs egg- there is a volute on the tribute guitar-so i guess alembic is keeping the design
we never discussed volutes ( which i loves from my standup days)
thanks brad,.,,, i consider that a major compliment.. dumb luck i suppose...  
something tells me this bass is going to be super special.  especially if i can nail down this inlay...if you saw my misc post- this one is dedicated to my pal scooter the cat who i miss every day.......

I love the dedication. I still miss all my old pets terribly. Hope the bass proves a worthy tribute; it couldn't be in better hands. Best of luck!

Jeff, it's from the heart. Mine have been as good friends as I've ever had, and I wish they were all still here. I was really, really moved by your dedication. Hopefully Scooter will live on past our time thanks to this bass. Once again, best of luck and take care.
