Glad you like it, Jim! I have around 45 basses worth of paint experience now, the finish work has definitely improved and my current prices reflect that. The compact headstock definitely helps with balance.
Since a '66 neck pickup and '63 bridge pup are the same (both for vintage Gibsons and ThunderBuckers), it would be easy to move your neck pickup to the bridge position and have Steve wind a '63 EX5 neck. That should give you the sound you're looking for. I'd be happy to do it.
