the more i play her, the more enticing she is

She's looking sweet Jeff. That coco bolo is phenomenal. Lets have a pic of the back and front of the peghead please. I'm keen to see how the laminates cope with the volute. I love the control layout too. that'll look special when you get the THGs.

bad pictures?
i will take some more when the sun is shining
flash doesnt work well as i get spotting

too many compression, we see only big pixels. Your picture is 1'652px ? 1'059px for ~ 125 Ko.
Reduce the size and not so much compression.
800/600 for 250 Ko is good.

There's a 150kb limit on picture sizes. jeffs pics look Ok on my monitor - NEC multisync lcd1770nx.

Jeff- if you send the pictures to me, I can resize them so they will display better. Not only will everyone be able to see more detail with less compression, but the smaller sized photos will make comments easier to read since they won't scroll off the edge.
 
Pierre is right that 800x600 will display fine with medium compression (7 in Photoshop) and usually be under the 150K limit.

NICE!!!
 
Jeff, If you are looking to give me a little more of your money, How about QCB tuners?

I wasn't aware there were already basses made with the tribute body shape. I love it! What scale is it?  Long scale?
 
Looking forward to the resized images.

Hartmut,
 
If I remember correctly, it's a medium scale.  Also- there was one built for Flax before this, it's for sale at bass Central

Again, if my memory serves me correctly the string spacing was wrong on the original, so this is the 'rebuild'

I cannot believe the wood on this base.  It is so wonderful
