    O would not say paltry. There is something different to like in all three. In the first you have great wood grain, and your simple but curved text is sylish without interfering. On the second one that does not have much woodgrain, the dark strips and wood truss rod cover accent it just enough.

    What I like about the third one is what you figured out to put in the "bulb." That's often space that looks kind of empty...and attempts to fill it don't always work. My SX bass did it well. So does yours.

    thanks Fender, very kind words. I think the third is also my favourite, it’s a build for a long time colleague and the “Kangaroo Island Special Edition” is a shared in joke for us.
