Is this just me or what? I definitely see a _mule_ in the grain of the first pic in Mica's first post. Drop dead _gorgeous_ bass with or without the mule, who seems to have disappeared as the bass was built up and routed. |

I can see the mule now that you mention it. Had to kinda squint my eyes. Mule walks into a bar. Bartender asks, why the long face! Lol! |

Saw your bass in rubout. I can't predict the exact shipping date, but it does look like it will be pretty soon if all goes well. |

Mica, when does the company start to rub out the customers instead of the basses (you know I love ya')? Awesome Buckeye, from one that owns a Series Buckeye. I never get enough of that variety wood. Enjoy it and play as an awesome player! BTW It is the horses head and not the bottom round that I see in the first picture. And I love horses. Hey Dave H. is that OK on the Forum? Heh heh heh!!!! |

Well Incredibass arrived Friday , and was lucky enough to have a gig that same night! What a HUGE sound! I highly recommend the ebony laminate in the neck! This is one incredible instrument! Thank You Alembic! |
