Thumbs up Thanks

Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions. I bought the bass yesterday- I guess I could get a comparable instrument from your factory for a bit less money, but my impatience got the better of me. Since no two instruments sound exactly alike (even with the same woods) I figured I should get the one that sounds best in my hands rather than order a new one. I was pleased to learn that electric basses can be built with the sound as the primary goal (not only the look). I had made up a dream bass in my mind that included a spalted maple top and matching headstock... I am glad to have met a few of your basses to remind me that no serious musical instrument maker would use rotten wood. Nice to know electric basses can be made as musical instruments. Thanks!

Sorry for neglecting request for photos.
Sorry also if the green carpet makes the whole picture green. I am not much of a photographer. These pictures were taken shortly after buying the bass.
