I am not excane Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 (edited) Now that I have acquired both of these basses (which are incredible) I took some photos of them together in the same light. I'm interested to see if this changes anyone's mind from the last thread I had.

Ou7shined Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I'm still going with blue/green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassman Sam Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Still Blue/green for me too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony_m Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 (edited) Still red for me - looks like a velvet cushion, while the blue/green looks like a cushion that's been left out in the sun too long!!! Edited May 28, 2011 by tony_m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayPete1977 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Yep +1 for blue green still Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Undead Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Blue/green for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc2009 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 The red is a touch too pink for my liking, and not a fan of the shade so much, though the figuring of the quilt on the red bass is a fair bit nicer., However, I voted blue/green cos it looks the best overall (no one can see figuring from a distance or when playing a bass anyway) and is a bit more uncommon looking!

Grand Wazoo Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Still voting for the Red one, that thing's on fire! even if I prefer bookmatched stripey maple to quilt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPJ Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Red for me too. I've never liked those blue to turquoise 'bursts but I bet it would look absolutely wicked redone in a black burst Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thumbo Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Red! I think it's got a particularly nice flame on it, which makes the depth of the colour look great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MythSte Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 I was about to click blue/green without a second thought, then I had a second thought... The red is much classier IMO and would look awesome with a suit. I like suits. Red it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Rich Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Voted red before, voted blue green this time because it's too close to call. Both look great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB3000S Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Blue/green for me please, both really really nice though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vibrating G String Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 I like the blue or green color better than the red, but I don't like bursts of any kind so I voted red. Stunning quilt on the red one also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monckyman Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 (edited) Still both hugleee. Edit. Just been told I`m a horrible nasty man by my partner for being rude. So apologies. Just not my thing. Edited May 30, 2011 by Monckyman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm probably the first person to speak my mind and will tell someone if I think a bass is awful. Just curious.... what finish on basses do you like? Solid colors? Natural wood, etc. ?

12stringbassist Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Blue / green for me - if I was picking one. Equally nice basses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EskimoBassist Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 I imagine that if I was playing the blue one then I would have to have a Chorus pedal turned on - as if I was rocking out under the sea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
