No kidding! Everytime you got GAS for a particular bass you just make yourself one.

Decided to go with gold knobs to set off the Jade transparent.  Pup rings now have spacers.

Well, those kids, always have to have more.  There's also an austerity model, today it has 4 strings, tomorrow who knows?

Thanks, Guys.  The best I can do to describe the sound is: like a vintage Thunderbird if it had a B string.  Very aggressive.
