The blackest Bass in the world?

[dave_bass5]

Just come across this. Not cheap at £2100 starting price, but oh my...... I’m sure these have been mentioned before, but its new to me.

That is lovely!

If anyone didn't like it I'd do a Public Enemy cover on it "yo they sayin my bass is too black man! I don't understand what they sayin but little do they know they can get a slap fo that!"

Looks really cool. However, Lakland's John Pirruccello says about the new Lakland Skyline 4464 GZ (Geezer Butler signature model):
"What can I say. It is very black. Can't get much more black than this" (1:11). A nod to Spinal Tap, I guess 😎

That too is lovely, although I’m very much drawn to the non gloss look these days. Is that like a black Duck Dunn with embellishments? The neck looks nice and slim.

Stealth black stingray?

Going to buy one of these one day 🙂

Just been raiding the Maruszczyk configurator and this comes out at €1,230.  I guess the PJ would be similar.  It is a matt finish even though it looks a bit shiny.

They do. Black basses matter. 

Ok quickly gets tin hat and joins Priti Patel on the naughty step.

I suspect it would look like this but with black where the red is!

I quite like the black but worth a few bits of chrome look, but its the style of finish on the body that really appeals to me.

Haha, dont worry, I wrote that in my first post and haven’t be banned yet 😁.

Sandberg did this a year or so ago when they launched the Fumed Oak finger board as a replacement for Rosewood.  QUite like the look.

We can sit and eat it on the step 😂😂

[dave_bass5]

I wonder what it would do look like on stage, especially is it was painted with Ventablack. That would look either so cool, or silly. 

Id love a suit made out of ventablack material. .

Yup that's exactly what I was thinking. And I do eat mine with a knife and fork (you'll be pleased to hear).

Anyway back to the thread, 'cos black basses matter; here's my (well actually more accurately my other half's) first ever bass:

It's pretty black, just needed to swap the bridge and the tuners!

Oh yeah, that looks nice. I love the black and chrome contrast.

Oh nice, i had something very similar in the 80s. Mine was blue burst, which is  still my fav colour today (hence loving my Sandblasted P).

You’re missus plays bass?? You kept that quiet! 

[Al Krow]

Funny thing was that it was a PJ bass, and it was only a while after I had moved it on (the missus tells me she's not happy I did that, but she hadn't touched it in 15 years!) that I came to realise that the PJ basses are where it's at!

Yeah. although PJ’s have been around for years, you cant miss them now. Still dont use that rear pup lol.
