John; I've started this thread as a place for you to ask Mica your question about strings.

Mica, Thanks for the updated pictures and I did get my dimmers hooked up on the Stanley..LOOKS GREAT!! The bass looks fantastic but I have a question..Are the side dots silver they look white and they don't look centered between the frets.Is that where you are putting the side dots now?

The side dots on fretless basses are placed near to where you place your finger, adjacent to the sideline. The dots are sterling silver on your bass. Glad the dimmer worked out ok on your Stanley bass.

Dave started this thread indicating you had a question about the strings. Was that ever resolved?

Thanks for clarifing the dots couldn't quite tell in the picture. Don't worry about the stings I will put chromes on it when it gets here. Can't wait to see it at the end of the month.
