Hamster Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 I'm in the process of acquiring a nice Musicman Sub 4 from Mikey D - [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=2323"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=2323[/url] I'm tempted to pimp it with a new scratchplate but I'm not sure what will look good with the matt black body? Feel free to photoshop if you're talented!! Hamster Quote
Tinman Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 Mirrored from me my friend, I'm a bit of a Lynott fan and think that would look really good. Quote
Mrs Tinman Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 I'm sorry, I think something has gone wrong with your poll - I can't see 'Pink' Quote

paul, the Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 (edited) If it's special unto the SUB range, I would stick wit' yo Alu'. Although, if you can get that creamy looking pearloid pg like the one on that Modulus that was on BC (where's it gone, searches failed?) it might work very nicely, if not too over-indulgent. [b]Edit[/b] I may well be referring to 'Aged Pearl' an shall vote thusly. Have you found piccys of what the bass will look like with each one? [b]Eddit[/b] [i]Again[/i]: I take it back, go matte black: (That white outline makes my knees go squishy) Edited July 14, 2007 by paul, the Quote

As it is - I vote black pearloid for Hamster's Sub. Jon. Quote

Tinman Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 Sorry mate, that just doesn't look right IMHO. Personally I'd go for something that matched the control plate. Just my thoughts you understand. Quote

The Funk Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 (edited) Even though my first choice is black abalone, I do like the matte black and black perloid options too. An interesting one could be black smoke mirror. EDIT: Of course, such a thing doesn't exist. What I meant was smoke mirror. Edited July 14, 2007 by The Funk Quote
thumbo Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 I vote matte black because I don't like it when too much attention it drawn to those oval scratch plates. Quote

Mrs Tinman Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 If pink is definitely out of the question, have you considered some random bunnies? Quote

Colour combinations do grow on you - I might buy 2 pickguards and swap whenever I change strings Hamster Quote
The Funk Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 Not a terrible idea, you know. You could get a matte black and a black abalone guard then. I'm surprised none of the tortoiseshell crew have piped up yet. Quote
