Bottom lines is, if your are happy then that is all that matters.

That took way more guts then I would have had. Great job, it came out beautiful!!!

Can you give us the blow by blow on the transformation process?

WOW, Very impressive. I'd also like to see the headstock.

Too bad the slight "Burst" or blend into black at the edges is gone but that is just my personal preference.

He did an excellent job!

did Pat Wilkins do it? also did you lose any of the quilt due to sanding?

Yes, Pat Wilkins did it, and I have to say it came out even better than I was expecting. I dont think any of the quilt was lost in the sanding.
He did offer to do a bit of a burst on it as well , however I just wanted the straight Purple.

Thanks Guys! Im really happy with it. As far as the headstock goes, he did a great job with what he had to work with.

Ill try to shoot a few pics of the HS and the whole Bass to post in the next day or two.

Two thumbs up for Pat Wilkins !!!

That looks simply awesome, congrats on a one of a kind. I own 3 purple Stingrays and none of them look like that! Wish I had a fourth like yours!

That is fantastic!
I just read that your bass was the reason that Brett Favre decided to play another season! ( I wrote it down, then I read it :D ).
