Best colour for a Jazz style bass

[Annoying Twit]

I generally go for natural basses. However, candy apple red with a maple fretboard and black pick guard just works so well on a jazz bass.

Yep, this is unashamedly a trivial post.

I don't inderstand why it is described as a precision bass when everything about it except the headstock logo says jazz bass to me.

I was blinded by the purity colour and didn't look at the details.

It's a photo mixup. The bass body has a maple fretboard with block inlays. The photos of the headstock shows a rosewood fretboard. As would be expected if one belonged to a VMJ and the other belonged to a VMP.

The candy apple red PJ looks nice, but IMHO not as nice as the jazz.
