Here's a few images I collected of your bass under construction.

Body halves on the shelf awaiting other parts:

Everything ready for carving:

Side of body with a little more sanding done to show those fantastic thick accent laminates:

I thought I had some more pictures, but I couldn't find them on my first look through my collection. If I find them, I will post them here.

That look beautiful already. Loving those thick maple laminates. Has Pierreyves started a new standard?

As you know, I got the email that you want the battery compartment recessed. But we're still on hold until we hear from you about any other changes.

I should probably learn to mind my own business, but whatever has happened is certainly between Alembic and Shoji; not for public consumption on the internet. I wouldn't want MY personal details that I've shared in private conversations posted in a blog for everyone to see.
