The knobs blend so well with an already magnificent instrument.

Wonderful, just wonderful...

Looks far too good to play, but I'd get over that real quick!
Congrats!!

The buckeye really is truly stunning! And the THG knobs are gorgeous too.

I'm not worthy. I have to play more!

How did you get the knobs to match so perfectly? Did you send Roger scraps from the actual top?

If I remember correctly, I just described the coloration to Roger at the time, and he used his wisdom & experience to come up with the right knobs. I would think emailing a photo of the top wood would be the best idea for an even more perfect match.
I was going to scrape off some of the top layer of the Buckeye from the bass to Fedex over, but thought better of it at the last minute. :-}

Truly a work of beautiful art and craft.

I love the look of these basses. The extra reach and enormous weight are such a killer for me.
