Dood Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Well, I've splatted these all over Facebook already here: [url="https://www.facebook.com/pg/DanVeallBassist/photos/?tab=album&album_id=1396330077130536"]@DanVeallBassist Facebook Album[/url] but I figured that many of us here have managed to escape Facebook, (gawd knows I've tried) so here's what I've been up to recently! As I mention in the FB posts and many of you know anyway - I am a massive chameleon 'flip-paint' whore-bag My Shukers are both Purple/Green flips, the 7 string enjoying ten years of looking damn sexy now! Musical Instrument Rehab in Norwich did this paint job for me having already resprayed my Fender Power Jazz Bass Special recently. That's one bass I am constantly asked about in Guitar Interactive Magazine! So, I approached Mark Ball again and asked if he'd be up for something a bit special. I wanted to 'flip' my Ferrari Yellow AB1 3X (XXX) bass. We went with an 'Extreme Edition' which flips Purple, Pink, Green and Blue, though these indoor pictures show a more subtle effect. This Dingwall is already a bit different and is not stock, but more to come on that another time. It does sound FAT! with a capital PH! (lol) Here's the porn: and to think, I was forced to put this bass up for sale.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] It's funny that so many people have asked me over the years if I use 'TVR paint'. I guess that's where most people are familiar with seeing these 'flip-paints'. Maybe TVR would like to bring one or two round for a test drive so we can compare! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Actually, earlier I was reminded that Sheldon Dingwall is a big fan of performance cars, so I don't mind the extra nod in that direction with the new paint job to go with my performance bass!

bartelby Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 At least you went for the more tasteful of the flip colours. Imagine a bass like this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassmayhem Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 (edited) I am glad you didn't sell this bass, Dan... It looks gorgeous, sexy, wild and wonderful. May I ask what a job like this costs? I've been thinking about doing the same thing with one of my basses. And - publish a pic with your whole "Chameleon Family"...
