Rick's Fine '52 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 My favourite stack knob colourway is sunburst, but as you've ruled that out, here's my Olympic White example, aged to a nice warm creaminess... http://[url="http://s208.photobucket.com/user/rosesguitar_2007/media/20150610_193028_zpslxuqva5y.jpg.html"][/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fun size nick Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 [quote name='cameltoe' timestamp='1444576606' post='2884219'] Loving these suggestions. Weirdly, I've had an urge to do a flat grey bass for a while, and had seen this colour on a car a while back, which I really like [IMG]http://www.autoweb.co.uk/media/images/15634998/1403867944FIAT__500__C_S__PETROL__GREY__2014__WR14XAM-01_md.jpg[/IMG] It's called Tech House Grey. Can you even paint a bass in automotive lacquer? Again I think this colour might lend itself more to maple fretboard and would look a bit heavy with rosewood. Whilst I'm on Fiat 500's, they do a pretty sweet mint green: [IMG]http://cdn2.autoexpress.co.uk/sites/autoexpressuk/files/fiat_500_frontaction.jpg[/IMG] A nice duck egg blue might work also.
