[quote name='eude' post='256415' date='Aug 6 2008, 04:09 PM']Cool man, can't wait to see the finished article! Cheers, Eude[/quote] me neither [quote name='david_l_perry' post='256483' date='Aug 6 2008, 05:08 PM']Thats nothing....when I orderd my custom Status Empathy 10years ago it was ordered as 'Pacific Blue'......and trust me the web site colour [i]was [/i]blue....Cant tell you how suprised I was when I opened the case up....good job I loved its greeny loveliness... My ACG Headless that is currently being made is all natural...... Dave[/quote] Lovely finish dave, thats the kinda finish i had orig imagined and would have been more than happy, but it is nice to be surprised...as long as its good that is!

[quote name='Mike' post='256410' date='Aug 6 2008, 04:00 PM']WOW - stunning finish! PS Mine is up to 8months![/quote] 8 months in total i take it? [quote name='Bigwan' post='256411' date='Aug 6 2008, 04:04 PM']Looking good! 38 weeks and counting here Jon quoted 12 - 20 weeks at the time...[/quote] thanks, the wait can be terrible, but i've been through it before with Jon, so i know it will be worth it in the long run

[quote name='eude' post='255593' date='Aug 5 2008, 05:12 PM']Nothing for a while dude, but given that timescales have been running up to 8 months and over I'm not holding my breath. Doesn't bother me too much just now, I knew I'd have to be ready for a wait on this one, I also promised Jon I wouldn't be nearly as much of a pain as I was last time round, and thus far I've managed to just let him get on with it I think Jon pushed to get the body sorted quickly so he could spray it with the earlier batch of orders, still not even seen a pic of the neck glued up... How long till you reckon you'll get your mits on yours then? Cheers, Eude[/quote] well i am hoping its not to far off, all the body and neck work has been done from what i can tell, so it should be onto the assembly next

[quote name='eude' post='255571' date='Aug 5 2008, 04:57 PM']Looking awesome mate! Really nice colour. Eude[/quote] aye am fair chuffed with this colour, any new on yours yet?

[quote name='ped' post='255543' date='Aug 5 2008, 04:35 PM']Oh crap, he made it the wrong way round! Seriously tough, what a lovely finish.[/quote] yeah mark of the devil and all that

Another update, just needs to be polished now, although the colour is different to what i though it would be, i actually prefer how this turned out to what is on page 1

nice!

looking forward to the pics

i think they would only bother if this model started to dent the sales of JEM's, similar to the ESP/GIBSON saga regarding the explorer

[quote name='OldGit' post='228122' date='Jun 27 2008, 03:56 PM']Yeah TV presenter makes Jazz bass in 33 seconds .. how come it takes Jon so long then? [/quote] Wondered how long it would be before someone said that lol!

so did anyone see this then?

cool, hopefully might get a sneaky peak at my bass

bravo excellent job

That sounds like its gonna be a bit of a beast!

[quote name='eude' post='207586' date='May 27 2008, 09:13 PM']On a side note, I've totally fallen in love with the shape you're going for, got a sweet idea for a short scale bass based on it, next year though, next year.... Cheers, Eude[/quote] Another one! , the GAS has got you good my friend

oh yes another cracker from Mr Shuker......looks stunning!

cmon stopping teasing us, we want pics

[quote name='eude' post='206357' date='May 26 2008, 09:25 AM']Hey man, thanks I don't have an ETA as yet, but it's been a little over 2 months since I put the deposit down. Jon said it'd take less than 4 months, as it's a real simple build, but I thought it'd be safer to take that as, "it'll take about 4 months". As far as I know, he's not started the neck yet, I think he did the body first on this to coincide the spraying with all the other jobs he's got on you see. I'm not gonna push Jon for a delivery date, at least I'm trying not too, as I know he's uber-busy and I'm not in a crazy rush for the bass, however if I could have it tomorrow I'd be stupid happy! How about you, you got an ETA yet on yours? Cheers, Eude[/quote] Na same here no ETA but it looks like its on course for Jon's Orig estimate

oooooo looking good eude!, how long until its finished?

Nice one, good to see some pics, when i spoke to Jon he said he had a whole load of spraying to do, looking forward to seeing more updates

Just got the latest update from Jon, the body will be getting its final spray this coming week, can't wait to see how it turns out
