Oh man.... I am drooling. BP you folks rock!

I'm fast wondering what I can sell to buy one in either seafoam or natural ash (homage to my bass heroes from the 70's and 80's who played natural 'Rays).

I heard rumours that the chrome batterie shield made it. Is that true?

It is true!

 

[tommixx]

OK I am getting antsy! Any word on pricing and availability? Did I miss which finishes are coming first? Are there any for sale right now? I don't want to miss the boat!

Peace,

Thanks, this is what i wanted to hear.

 

[rwelcome]

It is true!

Thank god! battery boxes are sooo cheap looking. More CHROME!!!

 

[silverburst]

2 screws, just like the originals.

hmmmm, I must have been missing something all this time!

I will have to start spending more time looking / gazing at the back of my basses!

2 screws, just like the originals.

Great!

Luckily I always care a small screwdriver in my gear bag or can switch out basses. Oh, well, still want one

If you chrome battery box cover guys are happy, then I'm happy for you.

You boys sure are weird sometimes.

 

[cellkirk74]

Its just a little detail, but IMHO just the right decission because a plastic batterie box may be practical, but it is not 'classic' at all. The chromecover sure is.

i think we bassplayers tend to be traditional in one or another way...

 

[RocketRalf]

I agree with the chrome battery cover. If you want practical, get a regular 2 or 3-band! This one is for classic looks.

 

[RaginRog]

looks like i'll be setting some $$ aside for one of these beauties! Great job guys!

+1

Classic looks? I though it was a retro homage with improvements, i.e. compensated nut, six screw neck plate, trust rod wheel, etc...

It would be cool to have the chrome cover over a pull out battery box. Best of both worlds; practical use and classic looks.

oh, well, like I said; I still want one
