That is the exact bass I have on order - I live in New Zealand, where I have only seen one reflex in person - Black HH maple. Beautiful. Found out yesterday that my bass is at 'sanding' phase. Ready Feb sometime. Gonna be a long wait. I like the contrast be tween rosewood and white.

Is ebony an option at this stage on the reflexes?

Not as a standard option. The Roasteds were available on the Reflex, but body color was limited to the Black Sugar finish.

The Reflexes are a great bass and I really think they are gonna take off as more people have a chance to see/play them.

There is that whole Gamechanger thing too :D

But of course :p ...just wait mine to arrive! :)

I already have arranged photo session in my friends photo-studio, but probably will take a few info amateur pics first, just to confirm that bass exist! :D

EDIT: ...I never asked before, does all maple boards on reflexes have black compensated nut, or it's reserved just for "Blackie"?

When You guys look at the right picture of this reflex from behind, we can all imagine how nice could match maple board with white body and black details! :)

Well, I see most of You guys like RW boards and lots of contrast :rolleyes: , it looks like I'm in minority here and probably my incoming rx 5 HH white with maple board will be very rare for a long time, but I'm sure that lots of You will change opinion when mine arrive and when You'll see the photos! ;)

When first official photos appeared, me and my friend who is skilled with Photo Shop were playing a little bit and made some photo fakes of Whitey with maple board, ...it looked really cool! :)

That's for sure, especially when talkin' about recession!

Just talked yesterday with very good friend of mine, he came on Holidays over Christmas from L.A. to his/ours home town, ...so he said that in the USA recession is over, but we are here in deep s*** at the moment :( ...hope we will recover in about a Year from now??? :rolleyes:

So, ...You North American guys are at the Light side of the planet, but we're still in the dark! :eek:

I'm an optimist, so I believe that with my Whitey, light will come here too! :p
