neepheid Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 Or perhaps a Rumblekat is more your thing? I'm not sure how I feel about this colour on these basses, I thought the white JC looked pretty damn good. Thoughts?

discreet Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 Woo! Liking the Casady. The other one, not so much. Never a fan of the Les Paul bass thing. I think the colour is great, very unusual... Quote
cocco Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 That's gorgeous, But what was wrong with Pelham Blue? 1 Quote
CamdenRob Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 [quote name='neepheid' timestamp='1456966039' post='2994161'] [/quote] Love it... I don't really have any use for one, but still, it looks great Quote
hookys6stringbass Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 Very nice ...but if I get another one it has to be red...fingers crossed or that Quote

dannybuoy Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 I hate blue as a bass colour for some reason. I do have a blue bass though, but only because there was a very cheap Sandberg Basic going in the classifieds and it sounds to good to sell! I bright red one would look pretty decent though! Quote
Tee Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 Hmm, Pelham and Lake Placid Blue look better imo. That blue somehow looks 'cheap' Quote

[/quote] Pelham blue is pretty nasty IMO. Although not as nasty as "Sonic" Blue - probably the least sonic shade of blue I could imagine! Quote
Cosmo Valdemar Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 Bloody lovely I think! I wish the JC had the white pickup though. Never satisfied, me. Quote
cocco Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 I still think the Ebony and gold tops are the best looking of these. I normally love silver burst but it just doesnt suit the bass somehow. Quote
neepheid Posted May 14, 2016 Author Posted May 14, 2016 (edited) Those pictures couldn't be wrong-er! These ones aren't right either (there's a green tinge to the colour which my mobile completely failed to pick up on), but they're better than the stock photos - what were they thinking? For BRX... Without flash... So, in summary, the Epiphone Jack Casady is still being made well, and it's the sparkliest and most difficult to photograph with a moblie phone it's ever been Edited May 14, 2016 by neepheid Quote

I love the JC bass, but the blue doesn't do it for me....mind you, I like the silverburst which I know is a bit marmite for some. Quote
RhysP Posted May 14, 2016 Posted May 14, 2016 They've got one of the blue Jack Casady models in the window of a music shop in Cardiff & it looks really nice. Quote
geoffbyrne Posted May 14, 2016 Posted May 14, 2016 Rules out using it at a Celtic Rally..... G. Quote
EssentialTension Posted May 14, 2016 Posted May 14, 2016 The colour appears so variable I have no idea whether I like it or not. Quote
dannybuoy Posted May 14, 2016 Posted May 14, 2016 (edited) Surely that needs a white pickup! Edited May 14, 2016 by dannybuoy Quote
cocco Posted May 14, 2016 Posted May 14, 2016 That looks loads better than their stock photo. I still think Pelham blue would have been better. Quote
discreet Posted May 14, 2016 Posted May 14, 2016 How about a sunburst one..? Y'know, like Jack used to play. Quote
