Hi Charles,

Here's the mock-up I sent by email earlier today:
mock up V2

And here's the revised line art:

Let me know if I've emphasized that "omega" area enough for you.

And finally, here's the back of your peghead with the mockup scaled to show placement:

Okay, so I think I understand about the omeega shape you were going for:
dragonfly V3
Let me know if this is more what you had in mind.

Charles-
It's looking beautiful. The back of that neck is LUSH!

The darkstars arrived yet?

Thanks, Toby!

Yes, they're here and installed...the SF is at the shop having the bridge and tailpiece installed right now. Hopefully I'll have pics this week!

Good stuff- I'll look forward to those pictures.

I like the omega on the dragonfly- it took me a while to notice the difference in the two drawings. I spent a few moments scrolling up and down and finally dumped them onto my desktop and overlayed them. Very subtle change, but a very cool one.

I thought you were an omega guy- how come you're going w/ the point on this bass?

If I had an omega on this bass, I'd probably break it!

Seriously, given the specs of this one, an omega wasn't possible. On the next one, it certainly will be!
