benjo09 Posted February 16, 2008 Posted February 16, 2008 Basically I'm after a Jazz bass in the colour of Dan Andriano's (main pic on this page [url="http://www.fender.com/products/search.php?section=Basses"]Dan Andriano bass[/url]) Doesn't matter about a painted headstock and my budget is £500 maximum. So, anyone up for the challenge? Quote
EdwardHimself Posted February 16, 2008 Posted February 16, 2008 give me £500 and i'll build you a bass from parts in those exact colours seriously though you could actually build a bass like that with parts for less than £500. Quote
benjo09 Posted February 16, 2008 Author Posted February 16, 2008 Ye I've looked into it but don't know anywhere in the UK to find parts and all the colour spraying I could find cost nearly £200. If you could link me to some sites I'd be grateful. Cheers Ben Quote
lee650 Posted February 16, 2008 Posted February 16, 2008 I think that colour is known as sea foam green, very nice!!!!!

The Burpster Posted February 16, 2008 Posted February 16, 2008 Might you just get a 2nd hand Highway1 jazz and have it painted by Sims? Quote

It's slightly different to the Sea Foam green, a little closer to blue than green. Quote
Bassassin Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 Squier VM Jazz + refin + upgraded hardware & electronics = less than £500, I'd think. Jon. Quote
