Valentino

Mmmmm ....IFF I am well informed this piece is coming to Belgium.
Well ...it IS the land of the fantastic sausages.

Hi Paul ,  
 
 
Perfectly right brother !!! Fantastic sausage land and ..........yyyyeeeaaaahhhhh!!!!!!!

That's a great looking quilt!

Hi Dave ,  
 
Thanks...on that 5a will be a wine burst finish...i choose this one to have akind of  flame look instead of a  plenty of shells  one ( see  big bubbles 3609 ).I hope you understand what i mean , my english is not perfect...btw , the bass will be : bal k 4 strings series 2 with heart omega , 32 ' , front and side red led's+dimmer and 3 position switch...i think i didn't forget anything...oh yes : 3 purpleheart laminates.

Your english is fine, Alain, and your abbreviations are excellent... But your taste in wood is the best (or maybe your trust in Valentino?)
 
Now, just try to be patient, because it will be worth it.

(tempting to delve into this Belgium sausage thing, but probably inappropriate)

Hi Bob ,
 
I didn't know my english was  understandable  at that point...thank you !  
 
I choose this wood myself...and my sweet (nearly wife )angela , we picked up the same wood , so , we said : go for it !
 
...about the sausage thing...well..i'll talk to paul to find the best way to explain how comes you can find really great ones ( quilted maple 5a of course...) here ...

Very nice features! I am looking forward to see it in the featured custom section when ready.
 
Hartmut

...thank's Hartmut...who knows it might be featured...that would be really nice ! and cool ! and great and......terrrrrriiiiiifffffiiiiicccccc!!!

A series II with wine burst finish and purple heart neck laminates? I am sure we haven't seen this yet! Of course only Mica can tell if it will make it into the custom section, but I wouldn't be surprised if it would.
 
Hartmut

Harmut ,  
 
all i can say is that until now and for 5 month , days will be verrryyyyyyyy long...and if by chance my bass appears on the featured custom of the month , i don't know in what state of happinees  i'll be , hope i don't have an heart attack ...i would never see it . The most important thing for me is that i dream of an alembic series 2 for 16 years ...can you imagine that so i'll do my best to hold on five more months : yeaaahhh!!!!
