Happy for you, it was a looong wait

Hey, Oliver, if you scroll up & click Archive through August 01, 2012, you can get a glimpse or two.......

Peter,
many thanks for the hint.  
Wow, that one is really gorgeous.  
What do those Classicos weigh?

I'm hoping for an unboxing video on Youtube!

That is going to be one big shipping box.  
 
Mica- any chance you can snap a picture of the shipping crate once it's all packed up and ready for the road?  I'd like to see the size of that sucker!!  
 
This image from A Christmas Story comes to mind  
 

...and don't ship it with an integrator like UPS.  
They base on a chargeable weight of 1:5....

Check out the size of this 3/4 size double bass case http://www.bluedanubeviolins.com/en/double-bass-cases.html

That's tiny.  When I left for university to study bass, i took my bass in a giant fibreglass - or whatever drum cases are made of - coffin, big enough for Frankenstein.   My residence roommate definitely drew a short straw.  The thing took up almost all the floor space in the room.

Yes ,  My point ... ... ... I have seen those monster cases. The one above is liveable  as far as size goes .A nice case it seems.

 

Love it, John!

Mica gave me a tracking number today. Should be here within the next week.

Awesome, congrats!
 
I find the case pic a bit offensive, I've never done anything wrong to it (as far as I can remember) :-)
 
Plz post many pics when she arrives!

I missed seeing it by 1 day.
