Ach, you guys are killing me! I just KNOW when I get home there will be a note from FedX indicating they'd attempted to deliver but needed a signature and didn't leave it.  :P

WOW! I agree with Scott, Rob's video didn't do this thing any justice. It's absolutely beautiful and happened to be in perfect tune out of the box  ???

Can't wait to get home and plug it in!

All set for Friday night ! Set up and sporting a new guard  :) ! Idiosynratic (is that a word?) as ever. The body is thicker than my first one, I like the thinner body ones, more like a real NR. No belly cut wish it had it, but no big deal. I just set this up and I can get the action soooooooooooooooooooo low, unbelievable really, plays and sound GREAT! QC seems to be getting better, the finish seems to have flowed out better, my first one was a little wavy. I LOVE the MOP inlays ! Adds just the right touch ! I knew the bass would be thicker it really isn't a big deal, any negative comments I have for the bass are MINOR, more stating a preference. I would (and will) buy another ! Thanks so much Rob !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love it Love it Love it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, I am really happy the basses arrived safe and sound.
And most of all so incredibly fast! I sent them away monday!
It was the first time I ever sent a bass to the USA. And first time I ever used DPD.
Looks we have a winner.

And of course I am very glad you like your BaCHbirds so much.

Mine's here too! Just got home from work and it was sitting inside my storm door. The Honeyburst is beautiful! I'm letting it warm up for a while before plugging it in. Wow, I'm stoked. I haven't even plugged it in yet and I'm trying to decide which color to get next. That's normal right? Thanks so much Rob. What an effortless and smooth bird acquisition. That's two birds in one week for me. I also got the green Jackson ,which I am loving. It arrived in brand new condition, not a single mark on it, no swirls-nothing. And both were only $500! What a great week to be a bass player.

Holy cow! Mine was here too! This thing is unbelieveably beautiful! I love how the BaCH logo is outlined in black and visible against the clear on the headstock. Here are some detail pics of my TH-2. Thanks so much, Rob!
