Looks good now, will look FABULOUS in blue, and I really dig the Blue Orca inlay. Ya know, Rusty, speaking as an expat-Texan to a still-residing-in-Mother-Texas citizen (especially since we're both from East Texas), it occurs to me that we should possibly consider forming an 'Texas Society of Alembics in Color' , so we can separate ourselves somewhat from our esteemed colleagues who are unfortunately doomed to a) not be from Texas, and b) live with B R O W N guitars and basses. Whoops, gotta go, 'Giant' is coming on next on TCM ! J o e y |

Hardware was completed and is en route to the plater right now. I was reviewing the colors with Bob this morning, so color is coming very soon. I'll share pics as soon as there is something see |

Hey Mica, quick question, when I was there last month I didn't notice the holes for the side mounted jacks, although I didn't specifically look for them (I was too much in awe of the inlays to think about the jacks!) so I wanted to make sure they get drilled before the final finish is sprayed. Thanks! |

I love the hint of blue color. I bet it will look even better down the road, but if it were mine, I could stop right here! |

Thanks Edwin! I love the hint of blue too, but I want it fully "Tangled Up In Blue!" Just like Steve's masterpiece. Hopefully today being Friday, Mica will bless me with more pictures! |

Rusty...... Rusty..... Wake up.!!!! I'm sure Rusty is asleep but I can't be certain if it's because he is tired or has seen the pictures and passed out. :-) It's looking great. (Message edited by Jazzyvee on August 27, 2014) |
