That eye's just a bit scary Jeff. The finish looks sublime though. Another masterpiece methinks. Graeme |

Are you trying to say you and/or Bradley can outrun me? lol As for Clemens and the rest, a review of ALL of the players on the "list" could support an argument that steroids actually don't help much. Marvin Benard? F.P. Santangelo? And no current or beloved Red Sox on the list composed by Red Sox Board of Directors member George Mitchell. What a surprise! "Flax is dreaming of a qcb Xmas" Bill, tgo |

Well, Jeff, I guess if you get the bass today I'll have to concede. I'm looking forward to photos. I want a recount. |

Hey Jeff, Can I trade you front doors today?lol Actually my dealer has been officially notified and Mica has indicated on my thread that I should be next after you. Or as Clemens said to Barry Bonds on the way to jail, "after you, I'm first"! Right about now you should be out in the front of your house looking back and forth for the Big Brown Truck. Or if you are like Jim Tussing and I you might be driving around town trying to find the truck!. That's kind of what happened to Jim as he was on his way to the gig, he couldn't wait home any longer and he wanted so bad to play his new bass at the gig. He actually ran into his UPS driver, pulled him over and got his bass, took it to the gig and got to play it! Awesome story, ha? The same thing kind of happened to me when I ordered my first Koa bass from Carvin. I saw the UPS truck at the mall and went in and found my driver (who is my friend by the way). He graciously went out to the truck and got it for me. It saved me five hours of it riding around in his truck as I am almost the last on his route at around 5 p.m. everyday and this was actually like 9:30 a.m. So more than 5 hours. On other occasions I've tracked items on the internet and called or gone down to the UPS outlet and picked the items up before they were loaded. Almost everything here in Hawaii is shipped so I've got it down to a science if I really want something bad enough. Hahaha Well, flax if you don't answer me I kind of know what's going on so good luck buddy on a beautiful arrival and a "BEAUTIFUL BASS" and a great weekend!!!! AAAllloooohhhhaaa, Paul da plumber. |

I got your email - I didn't respond since you were just confirming what I left in my phone message. I don't want to be guilty of the never ending email trail. Fax was a riot, and Erik was napping when it came in. It's a 5-string .050 .070 .085 .105 .132, these must be yours. Before everything gets loaded: Enjoy! |

Hey, I spied a bass when I went to the shop: Wow, this looks nice: Good enough to eat! I'll let you remain vaguely discomfited at the idea that I actually licked your bass, Jeff. |
