Wow! I knew this was yours when I was out in the shop tonight:
 

 
I'm anxiously awaiting the finish.

tbrannon

Very interesting.
 
What kind of finish is it getting?  Any color?

Mica, All I can say is WOW ! and Thanks for the pic ! I have been wanting one of these for a along time ! Can't wait to see it after the finish is applied. For all interested it's getting a Tobaccoburst finish.

Very nice, but no leave it in the flame IMHO!

Tobaccoburst? Cool, I was wondering how an Alembic tobaccoburst finish would look.  
 
I was thinking that a medium scale Europa would look great with that.

georgie_boy

Have to agree with White Cloud here!
 
WOW!!!
 
Maybe just a slight hint of amber?

Sadow..whoski? Just look at that bass! Far surpasses the reference standard(Sadowski)of the reference standard(Fender). Pre CBS ofcourse. I think unmolested or any tint will look great on this piece. Traditional triple burst would be a jaw dropper.IMHO. Good luck with this bass whatever color you go with.

I think that tobacco burst is going to be drop dead gorgeous.  Lookin' good!!!

The ultimate Fender style bass

This is quickly becoming my favorite bass under construction. I have always loved Jazz basses. Put on whatever finish you like,you're going to probably have this beauty for a long time.
