That's some beautiful wood! But, I think a bass made from that wood should be called "Rorschadt." (Just kidding)

Congratulations!

this thing is going to be spectacular, regardless of whichever bass it becomes,but what body type will it be,and any special cut outs? how many strings? 7 laminate neck indicates a 5 string "crazy for coco bolo puffs" monster!

Thankfully, I seem to have been exempted from the "bashing on my local sports team" thread, but then I live in Seattle.

In other words, it was more out of pity.
