I can take no credit. All I did was put it together.

The top is not opaque; the whole thing is trans green, just very very dark on the front to cover up The Patches.

This bass is mono (!), otherwise it's standard 360-style wiring. The neck pickup is a flat-back toaster wound to something ridiculous like 17k; the bridge pickup is a '90s toaster (14k) that I had in my parts box. Sounds like THUNDER through an SVT.

Looks really great, Kenny! I can only imagine the sound of it, what strings are on her?

Can you send the bass to MARF II with John, if he does come?

No way! You have to come to the OC for the next confluence.

+1 on all that has been said, Kenny. Awesome. I had a '70 Chevelle about that color. Great to see the back maple details show up so nicely. With those pups through an SVT I imagine you can stop hearts - literally!

Hope to see it at SoCal 3!!

"No way! You have to come to the OC for the next confluence."

I am hoping to do just that!

I prefer using Shitzu, which is of course a dog
