I also love the white one. Not surprised that you're keeping it.

For the 80% (probably more) of bassplayers who prefer two pickups...

Single pup would be nice ...

If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

"My" dream choice, not the one your using for your gig... just my own preference matches up with your own... ;)

The last of the 2x4 bodies, modded RNR shape.  Deeper cutaways.  I did some heavy body scalloping, planning on doing more to the treble side.  Shot gray primer to get an idea how it's coming along.  Twelver neck.  Fits in a standard case, even with the big headstock.

Daphne Blue going to Roy in Singapore.  It's an amazing place, the subway stations are made of marble.  The first time I was there a Phlipina maid was being executed publicly in a soccer stadium for a murder she couldn't have physically committed.  Her employer had obviously done it but she took the fall.  Subsequent visits were more pleasant.  Best airport I've ever experienced, followed by Kuala Lumpur and the new Hong Kong one.  The old one was ringed by peaks and dropped you into the middle of  Kowloon after you'd hopefully managed not to soil yourself.

Ditto!
It takes a very deep-rooted opinion to survive unexpressed

...so I guess we have a consensus on Daphne blue.  Looks even better with three clear coats.

Are the radii different on those pickup routes or is it just an optical illusion?
