The awesome appearance of Bradley's custom 6 string Coco Bolo Balance K in FTC prompts me to ask how much it would cost. I know the front&rear bevel is $250 retail; but how much extra is the cost for the mini-Omega cutout in the headstock? Depending on cost, I simply might just HAVE to get this/these features!

I'll have Valentino email you about that tomorrow. He's got Tuesdays off, and only Susan and Valentino quote prices.

I guess you and Val didn't get to the pricing on this feature when you spoke on the phone today. I just checked with mom, and the Omega cutout on the peghead is $300.

The omega peghead cutout is not something that can just be added in some cases. It's really best to know before we cut the peghead out what the final shape will be. It may affect the placement of the front and back veneers, for instance.

This is the last item that I know of that is keeping your build on hold for now. Once it's cleared, so will the path for the rest of the constuction on your bass.

Have you decided if you want the Omega peghead or the Corwn peghead on your bass?

Yes, ma'am, I WOULD like to have the mini-omega feature in the peghead AND the front & rear bevel for the peghead -ASSUMING that the cost would be $550 retail ($300 for the omega, $250 for the front/rear bevel) that could/would be added to the order with Beaver and subject to his dealer discount.

As long as this is the case, I ask for you to go ahead with it.

It's killing me... but it just looks SO good, I want to have these features... I know it'll really push the looks of my bass "over the top!"
