It's hard to post a good picture of this bass.  Maybe I'll try again later outside.  It has so many little birds eyes in that zebrawood.  And that yellow finish really shows it off.  The neck is very thin and tiny.  A real joy to play.

Michael,
  The picture I took didn't show all the little birds eyes either. Looking forward to see how your outside experiment works out. It will be raining here today in FL. so no outside pictures for me today.

Michael,
 I just noticed that the saddles on your bridge are set all the way back towards the tail piece. Is this how this Bass intonates?

Yes.  And in that setting it is perfect.  Those are light TI Jazz flats.  It's hard to tell from the pic, but those saddles could go back a little more.
