The trans white looks awesome. If you guys made a Silhouette in that color, I could get myself into trouble.

Oh yes I appreciate that, I wondered why back in the old days that post was positioned to hold down the G and D strings. Thanks

By the way I loved those pics so much I've put them all together in a nice carousel

2) i need to know when shell pink will be a release colour so i can have the moeny and order it from Long and McQuade

those look awesome! i was very close to buying the trans white but a quick consultation with my bank balance ended that fantasy. hopefully it'll be one of the sooner quarterly releases.

OK so I have been finally playing the Fiesta Red Classic and all I can say is YA'LL AIN'T READY FOR THIS!! WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW! I put a set of locks on her and strapped her on and she feels like old shoes! I lost my '79 Ray in a Fire and have been on a quest to replace her but just could never find one that was quite there......This one NAILS IT!!!! Everything about her is just perfect! The weight is great the G is F A T and the tone is AMAZING! Instant Louis Johnson and Paul Spencer Denman at my fingertips! I have only had a chance to play her for a couple of hours and the wood is probably going to settle a bit because it is cold and rainy here so I have made a tweak to the truss rod but WOWOWOWOWOWOW! More than I ever expected in every way. The neck is just frikkin SICK! Anyone who orders one should definitely think about getting a Birdseye neck.... Unbelievable! The pics here do not do her justice at all. She is perhaps the most beautiful bass I have ever seen in my life! The 25th I had was incredible but this one is in a class by herself...

I CAN NOT RECOMMEND THESE ENOUGH!!!

Pics and a gig report to come...I have 3 gigs over the next 2 days so I will get a good chance to feel her out...

Thanks so much to BP and the rest of the people who made these possible and to the talented people who obviously put not only their considerable skills but also their love into this instrument! I am eternally grateful and I feel very blessed that this instrument found me! I am so terribly sorry that Robert was not able to keep her but I am a big believer in KARMA and I believe she was destined to find me and the right one will find you my brother!

Peace,

T
