Jens has a real eye for dramatic impact though.[/quote] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzz Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 I like the halves seperately, I think an entire bass with that blue flame would look lush. Kind of reminds me of lightning or an electrical storm. The bottom looks a bit too busy for my liking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bundacious Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Crikey, not the most subtle of colour schemes. Would maybe look good on a car but I'd probably not have it on my bass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tauzero Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 It works on the back of the bass, but it's too much visual clutter below the centreline on the front of the bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yorick Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 It reminds me of looking through crystal clear meditteranean water with sunlight streaming through it and seeing the seabed........

It works better on the back, but if it was me id have it all the top halfs colour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7string Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Just an amazing instrument. I hope that whoever buys that plays it and doesn't lock it away as an investment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
