We brought this piece up to our friends in Oregon to show them some of the cool stuff the team has been working on. It's an ash body, mahog block, koa body and neck, ebony board, pearl dots, and natural finish. I have another one I'll be posting later today that is my favorite.

Despite what the label on the headstock says, it looks like it could be a glimpse of a Sterling 5. Hmmm.

Lemme see how much I can get for the wife and kid.


You're scaring me, Dargin.

Hey!

I got one more kid than you - and their both bigger!

Oh, goodness.

Jack, this just isn't fair! When I saw the pic of the sunburst 20th, it looked all too familiar to me - if you know what I mean. Now this. Argh!

If it was a 4 banger with a thin neck, I'd make a day trip to SLO. Taking the family in trade, or course! ;)

Ken...

The back of that neck has gotten my attention.

Waiting on the BFR Bongo. That might make me lose it altogether.

Forgive me if this has been asked and answered, but....how do we order a BFR? Via a dealer?

I know that you can't specify, say, flame vs. quilt, but what about really basic stuff like wood or color? If one orders a BFR is it a total crap shoot?

That would be a serious disincentive.

Heh. It's funny how some people change their tune about "coffee table" basses under certain circumstances. :D

That looks amazing. I rue the day when the BFR Bongo is released....
