OK, here's a few pix, of the Noob meeting the rest of the family. I've ordered a Tortoiseshell pickguard from Pickguardian, as I love the look against the Mapleglo finish, as can be seen from my 370/12 VP MG just to the right side of the photo.

Congratulations, Ian. This bass is very good looking and great sounding. I'm glad you liked it.

Cool photos, Ian!

So, after much soul-searching, wavering, wimping out, trials & trepidation, and a surprise egging-on from my wife, I finally came home this afternoon with an amp worthy of my new 4003. It's a spanking new Markbass CMD 151 Jeff Berlin Signature Combo and I'm lovin' this thing to death right now. Thanks for all the advice folks - I couldn't be happier (if somewhat poorer)

Good move, Ian! Markbass are great with Ricks.
