I have a vision

[hillbilly deluxe]

I have a vision of my next bass,and an offer of "is there anything at all that you would like for your 50th birthday ?" from my lovely wife.
Body - Black Precision or Jazz...........hmm not decided on that yet.Precision would be P/J,Jazz would be J/J.
BWB scratchplate.
Jazz neck - Fretless/unlined/matching headstock.
Gold Fender type hardware.
EMG pickups,naturally.

Anyone with photoshopping skills able to let me get a look at this in both Precision and Jazz shapes,your help will be greatly appreciated.

I'll get back to you with some mock-ups when I get time but this fella seems to cover a few bases for you at once (chrome hardware though)

Ebony board too although IMO it suits the all black finish better than rosewood.

[hillbilly deluxe]

I think you are right,ebony it will be,wether it ends up as a Precision or Jazz.

Thats looking more like my idea,thanks.

[hillbilly deluxe]

Still cant find decent pics of Precisions or Jazzes in black with matching headstocks.

[kerley]

Could look at an all black Aerodyne and squint a bit :-)

check out some pics of queen in the mid eighties, john deacons p bass was black with gold hardware

[Ou7shined]

Colour matched headstock....

[hillbilly deluxe]

Thanks Ou7shined,that could be the one,and it makes it easier to visualise a Jazz in that scheme too.
