Big Mick Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 My Yamaha BB414 has been with my good friend Johnny Rat for the last couple of weeks. Before, nice guitar but a bit plain. Now with added artwork! Cheers, Mick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master blaster Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Awesome. A bass like that would require one hell of an afro! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delberthot Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 When I saw the first pic I thought - oh no, that's my favourite yamaha colour, what's he done? I really like it - or course as someone with a black thunderbird with flames up the fretboard, I'm all in favour of modifications to make a bass your own and this is certainly unique Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Best Ever Yamaha colour! Nice personal touches - what type of paint were then done with, just out of curiosity, should you ever sell it on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clauster Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 When I first peeped at this thread, I really didn't like it, but the more I get drawn back, the more I like it. Especially the headstock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MythSte Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 I dont think I'm ever going to be cool enough to rock something like that but it really is an awesome job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mick Posted October 18, 2010 Author Share Posted October 18, 2010 Thanks for all the comments people. the paint is special pinstriping stuff called 1 shot, not sure what brand he uses. There are 3 types of gold leaf used as well. If anyone wants any work doing, you can contact the man himself, via his gallery page.
