Hey George, it has Epic controls so its almost the same, which I like.  However the sustain is days longer.  I always thought the claims about neck through sustain were exaggerated.  Boy was I wrong! I need to work on my muting technique

Congratulations Sam. That's a really sweet looking bass. Play it in good health. My next bass will also be a birthday present but it's a couple of years off and I'm planning to visit the mothership into the bargain.

Hey Graeme, thanks, I'm enjoying the heck out of it.  Give me a shout when you're ready to come over.  Maybe we can manage a California vacation then.

Congrats!
 
Looks like a unique headstock also, I love that mini me version of the Crown.
Clever way to reduce neckdive on a medium scale small body.

Thanks for all the nice words.  Today is the actual day.  The first thing I did was get up and play Cream's version of Lawdy Mama with this bass.  Then I opened the next two presents,DVDs of the Gumball Rally and Dr. Who with David Tennant.  Good Stuff!

Well today is my birthday also and I'm about to send a payment for my 2nd Alembic in about a month. I guess I got away promising I will sell something else.
Like the title of the thread says: Happy birthay to me !
