After selling a significant chunk of my collection and saving some money on top, I pulled the trigger and ordered a 5-string from Pete Hilton. Details are scarce at the moment and I wont have the bass for another 8 months, but hopefully Pete will be getting the wood in June and will send me some pictures, so I'll be able to share...
Cant wait!

Are you having one built with-or-without the scroll? Not my favorite look, but he definitely knows what he's doing with wood - the basses are beautiful!
