NBD: PDN Mahogany Honey Burst BigAl 5 SSS

[T28]

Just got the call from my local FedEx/Kinkos that my bass has arrived!

Thank goodness I send all my GAS attacks to them so that I don't have to worry about someone staying at home to sign for it (or find out about it.... heh heh heh)! The fact they are a 24/7 shop also helps since I know if I get caught up at work late (like tonight) that regardless of the time I can swing by and get it!

Pics coming either late tonight or most likely tomorrow cause I will probably be checking this bad boy out and playing it instead of snapping photos!

Congrats, and +1 on the Fed Ex stores, I do the same thing to avoid giving my wife the unnecessary trauma of seeing a big box coming in the door !

Can't wait to see it.

Nice grab, T28 - I can't wait to see the pics.

I like this Fedex Shop idea. I might have to try that sometime

I'll take note of this - last package was shipped to me at work to save my wife the heartache.

then, you gotta get good at sneaking it into the house.

 

[jlepre]

That's easy! Just pop it into on old gig bag.

It was an amplifier head. I took it to my heated practice space and left it there.

 

[Holdsg]

sounds like you all got this figured out (without my help)

 

[T28]

Actually is a much darker smokier color than the pics show because of the flash....very sexy in the flesh.

 

[T28]

Unfortunately a very overcast day so I have to take the pics inside........

 

[T28]

As has been said in almost every thread showing these PDN's, the pics just do not do the bass justice.
The figuring of the fingerboard is just breathtaking if you move the strings off to the side.
Absolutely beautiful when you are holding it and not looking at a computer screen.

 

[Holdsg]

Each of these are just fantastic. Congrats on a beautiful bass. Love those new tuners too.

Wasn't sure how I was gonna like the SSS setup but so far I am really diggin it.
Seems I can get a lot of variations of tone.
