But it's a cool wonky ! Hahaha! Yeah the multiscale fan fret system is amazing though, like wow the strings just feel amazing... unless its a rickenbacker then it always feels amazing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat Burrito Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 I thought I'd posted this here but this is my Fender Precision. Black on black with maple... that's just the strap partially obscuring the body. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reggaebass Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 I’ve given one of my old jazzes a makeover, it’s now got a black headstock with a gold decal, and Ive changed the tort pickguard for a black single ply one , which I think looks so much better, and I quite like the strat knobs so I’ve left them on and I’ve kept the really well played in flats on 🙂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleat Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 This is my Beautiful Black Beast Backup Bass or BBBBB for short. It's a £99 Artist Guitars P bass copy now fitted with some black hardware and a DiMarzio P pickup. Killer bass for the money too. 🤘 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleat Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 No it isn't Ebony. I think they call it an "eco-rosewood", so not sure exactly what it is! It doesn't look a million miles away from my Les Paul which actually is Ebony though! 😎 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried but could not find any black pickup covers to fit the pickups so I had to Sharpie them. I'll spray them black at some point. I do love how Fender somehow ended up making basses that looked like the slightly wonky MIJ lawsuit era instruments that were trying to copy Fender in the first place.

I’m selling some bits so I can see about buying Gareth’s other one of those! I thought the slightly off-white controls and pickup covers would contrast nicely with a black scratchplate.

I did have the original off-white controls and pickup covers on for 24 hours but changed them out. It is a strong look though. If the neck had been rosewood I'd have fitted a tort scratchplate. But black / black / maple is fine for me 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
