danweb22 Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 (edited) After seeing a thread on here saying there was a JJ Burnel P bass in stock on Jon's website I had to try and get it! Unfortunately, according to Jon about 10 people were before me and it had already gone. :-( But....... Jon has offered to build me one and should be ready in 5-6 months! :-) I was thinking of maybe a different colour rather than the black (just a thought), would anyone have any ideas on something different? It will have a maple board/headstock as per the stock page. Just thinking out loud really Edited September 30, 2011 by danweb22 Quote
fender73 Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Technically it's not an NBD then? :-) How about Candy Apple Red? Quote
Muzz Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Sacrilege! Whatever next? Non-red ferraris? Jaco J's in purple flake? Actually, he did use a mythical greenburst P (I think there's a pic on here somewhere), but IMO it's a particularly bilious combination. It's your dosh, though, so you're paying the piper on this one... just don't do it pink. Quote
danweb22 Posted September 30, 2011 Author Posted September 30, 2011 Ah very true! haha New bass ordered day? NBOD? Quote

[/quote] Yeah I still like the black but was just wondering, I have asked Jon if he has any other colours and if anyone else has asked for one in a different colour Quote
Clarky Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 It was me wot posted the link. Great basses. BBM works best for me, if it ain't broke .... However I do love antigua with maple like this Alleva Coppolo that I once owned [attachment=90456:Alleva.jpg] Quote
Ou7shined Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Maybe get him to put a bit of a sparkle through it... just to set it apart from the other Black Ps. Quote
charic Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 White would be my choice currently but the GreenBurst could be awesome Quote

charic Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 I like greenburst! [sharedmedia=core:attachments:34313] Quote
MartyBRebelMC Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Seafoam green, mint pickguard, maple with white binding and block inlays.... sorry i was just fantasizing about my dream bass Quote
Musicman20 Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 White, Seafoam Green or Sunburst. Black is boring. Quote

Jondeeman Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 (edited) How about a green pearl painted over black????? It's the one on the left. These colours are from Mipa in Germany... rather bling, wot! You'll have the painter tearing his hair out, but a green / brown / black flip maybe interesting...

Delberthot Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 If you're going for something different you may as well go the whole hog [IMG]http://i927.photobucket.com/albums/ad111/Delberthot/Gold%20Warmoth/DSC09619Large.jpg[/IMG] Quote
Lozz196 Posted October 1, 2011 Posted October 1, 2011 Stick to the black - with a maple neck, black with black pickguard is just soooooo cool. Quote
markorbit Posted October 1, 2011 Posted October 1, 2011 I've owned a Shuker JJB and if I was to order another and change the colour I would request a greenburst with rosewood neck. BBM is well cool but I've kinda overdosed on that colour combination in my time. The 1st 3 Stranglers albums, the ones with the most sharp, aggressive bass tone were recorded with the rosewood and I did find the stock JJB too aggressive for me these days with the ash and maple. Though it did sound like straight from Black And White to an extent! Quote
danweb22 Posted October 1, 2011 Author Posted October 1, 2011 Might be looking at something similar to Doods "Doodle", dark metallic purple but without the flip! Quote
