Here's the image we wre discussing yesterday:

Your bass is in spray now. I just love the figuring of the Coco Bolo! Your cool purple flight case will be ready when the bass is ready.

You haven't seen the back yet, so take a peek:

The road case will be here in about a week, so things are looking good!

Arrival day is Thursday, needed just a little more fine cleaning and tweaking. Everyone that was lucky enough to see this bass at Bass Quake (thanks again for letting me bring it!) was absolutely amazed. It sounded especially nice through the Glockenklang gear. WOW!

Maybe it's because it is late at night, but that thing is amazing; it's a pleasure to look at. It appears to be in motion; liquid.
