My free Fender coffee beans are all gone. My plans to spend this entire wait period all nervous and jittery have now been cut short.

Will do Peter. I've been super busy the last couple days but I'll give a nice, super OCD rundown of it ASAP.

8.55 lbs!

I'm still at work, so I haven't been able to plug it in yet, but... other than a few minor details, this bass is up to par with my $4500 Custom Shop bass.

The alder they used for the body is RIDICULOUS... it shimmers in the light. I don't think I've seen anything like it.

I hate factory setups, so I'm really excited to get home and set this beauty up and play it.

DAMN!!!

Really nice. Great choice of options. Maple/2tsb and gold anodized. Classic! Love that look in a P bass.
