There isn't any room to put the bridge CVQ under the neck CVQ - it will make the control impossible to use, especially if the switches are in the up position. No, the only way to add a master volume is to put the bridge CVQ right by the bridge. Otherwise, I think we'll have to abandon the idea of adding the MV unless we add it close to the HX pickup. Let me know how you want to proceed.

What is it about these dark Rogues that makes them so cool? The wood combinations just seem to bring out the best in that body shape...gorgeous!

Here's the preflight pics:  

 

 

  "Jelly" as we call her, is stunningly beautiful and has a great voice. It's an almost haunting wood combination with all the dark woods melting together. I'll be curious to see your knobs and tuner decorations added, so please do post an updated picture later.

it's been said before and no doubt it will be said again, because it's true: this is a gorgeous bass.  i gather from your profile that it will be joining several other alembics in your collection.  congratulations!
 
the look is striking, very elegant, and your wood choices work together perfectly.  with the coco and all that purpleheart, i'd expect it to have a clean (almost bright, but not 'maple-bright'), full, well-articulated voice, all the way from low E to high G
 
play it in good health

Just beautiful!! I see that you're in competition with Rami and Val for most incredible fretless of the year.      
 
Congratulations & best of luck with her.

Really really nice, I guess we won't be hearing from you for a while ...... you'll be too busy playing !!

Barry:
 
WOW!  I love the neck.  With all the dark wood it almost makes the bass look ominous, like rolling thunder on the horizon.  I bet it sustains until next Tuesday.  Enjoy it, I have no doubt that you will.
 
Bill, tgo

Barry, many congratulations with that stunning bass!

I'm with Bill....Love that neck!!  Beautiful project altogether, but the purpleheart neck is most impressive.
 
Peace,

Barry,
 
Congrats on the Custom Of the Month honors! See that....good things come to those who wait...and you did wait, LOL! Now, if you wait a little more, you can buy the coffee cup with your bass on it!
 
Cheers,
