Baloney Balderdash Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 (edited) My 5 string Ibanez GSRM25 Mikro Bass, that I guess still qualifies as black, even if some grey and silver visual mods have been added, which is strung with the 5 thickest strings of an Ernie Ball Bass VI string set, gauge .090 to .030, and tuned in F# standard tuning, as in 2 half steps above regular standard E 4 string bass tuning, meaning F#1 to D3, and got it's 2 stock J pickups wired in series. Poplar body and a bolt on maple neck with a jatoba fretboard : And my 4 string Ibanez GSRM20 Mikro Bass, in regular standard E tuning, with a set of P/J EMG Geezer Butler pickups installed, though the Geezer P pickup is soon to be replaced for a DiMarzio Model P, even if I guess it could be argued that it isn't really all that black anymore, despite that actually being it's original stock finish.

meterman Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 I do like black basses, here's my old partscaster Squier Mustang. I had a black VM Mustang and a silver sparkle Mikey Way signature Mustang and took the best bits from both and ended up with a one-off black Squier Mustang with matching headstock. It was nice for a short scale, but lives in a mate's studio now. And someone out there has got a silver sparkle Mustang with a maple neck. That was nice too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maude Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 My '99 Yamaha BBG5s owned from new. It was my only bass for 10 years. The gold hardware has worn to a very silvery gold so looks really nice now.
