Mica, any chance of some pictures!? Also, can I get a heads up from you guys or Bass Central when the bass is ready to ship? Thanks for making the best instruments in the world.

I do own both a Spyder 4 and a Spyder 8 and the basses are great. I bought them both trough BC and the service of Beaver is fantastic. I play the Spyders both with my WHO tribute band WHO ARE YOU.

Mica is getting married this weekend so please be patient as it may take a while for progress shots.

It's a great bass made by artisans. I own number 7 of 50, and it's the prize of my collection. Beaver and crew are the best. I bought my Spyder and Pedulla through them, and it was great. Mica - I'm glad someone is making an honest woman out of her! :-) Congrats to Mica and her husband to be. He is a lucky man for sure. I only hope he's a bass player .. think of the discounts ...

They are the best. Afterwards, when I had my repairs/modifications/upgrades made to it, Mica and Val took most excellent care of me and my bass. Congrats on your purchase Jeff...it is well worth the wait.

The sound is unlike anything I have ever heard. What an amazing guitar! davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 2731 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Wednesday, December 07, 2005 - 4:57 pm:    Congrats! kmh364 Senior Member Username: kmh364 Post Number: 1457 Registered: 9-2003 Posted on Friday, December 09, 2005 - 6:16 am:    Jeff: Congrats and welcome to the club!
