Thanks so much for all your entries & hope everyone's had fun noodling around with this - obviously it's not to everyone's taste & some instruments are sacred, however it's a simple, relatively cheap & easy way to personalise your bass to make you stand out from the crowd.

Cheers all
Tim

Thanks so much bluejay, that's great news

[Kirky]

First vote. I've never been first at anything before!

[Cameronj279]

At least I got the most amusing name! That was my intention (genuinely, I forgot it was a competition)

[TimAl]

@Cameronj - you were always going to get a (virtual) prize with that image HaHa.

Shall we say voting closes at midnight on Sunday if that's ok with everyone - winner announced here first thing on Monday morning . . .

[Donnyboy]

Some good ones alright , and some just completely bonkers.... I liked skol's see- thru one..

[seashell]

Some great ideas here, but it was easy to chose the one I liked best.

[theyellowcar]

Howie's for me. Brilliant idea.

[uncle psychosis]

I love the design of Smaz's one but its the wrong orientation for playing. So on that basis I voted for Roland Rock, looks cool as.

[planer]

Voted.

The P on a P is making my eyeys goooo funnnnie.

[Oopsdabassist]

Well I voted for mine...cos its the best! Obviously.

That's not cricket!

[BigRedX]

IMO it's not really fair to vote until the missing image has been included. So I'm going to wait until that has been sorted out.

Cricket? I know my bass is a bit of a plank but really?

[Twincam]

I'm useless at deciding stuff like this and was hoping one was just going to "pop out" and say "pick me".
Fortunately it did. Nice one Twincam. Simple, elegant, colour appropriate, to the point and just downright badass.

I have PM'd Jellyfish but I haven't had a reply. If anyone knows him please ask him to get in touch . . .

Fair enough. When is the closing date?

[TimAl]

I've suggested midnight on Sunday - so it'll run for just under a week - but if Jellyfish gets in touch beforehand I'm happy to extend a couple of days to try to give him a chance. Annoyingly I can't remember what his image was, but I'd like to give him a chance if possible.

[Roland Rock]

IIRC it was an image of outer space. Possibly.

[Dad3353]

... or a ... er ... jellyfish..? [size=4] [/size]

[seashell]

Are we allowed to canvass votes?
Come on everyone, vote for Dad3353. It's a wonderful image. I'm not massively into scratchplate designs, but I would bloody love that on my bass.

Aubrey Beardsley I presume, Doug?

[Oopsdabassist]

Was I the only on thinking a red ? on a red P WAS the Jellyfish entry? Looks kinda cool I think.

Yes, I like his stuff, especially Le Morte d'Arthur, of which I've a copy. Fine work. You've good taste, lass. [size=4] [/size]

[cytania]

For me it had to be Oopsdabassist's Steampunk. Great design that would have me GASing like crazy if I saw it in a shop. 😛
