Lozz196 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 I have a maple necked black Jazz with black pickguard that looks great, also think sunburst looks good with maple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuyR Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 I have always liked surf green. Btw Bubinga5, your old Sei Jazz 5 is sitting on the sofa next to me. In case you wanted to keep track. Very lovely. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat Burrito Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 I like the simplicity of the vintage white which I can liven up with a funky pickguard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeftyJ Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 I used to be all for transparent finishes, and as a lefty (traditionally offered a choice between sunburst and black only) I should hate myself for this, but I'm still going to say it: black! Paired with a black 3-ply pickguard I love the luxurious look, especially with white blocks and bindings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OliverBlackman Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Teal blue/ green Trans finish on a quilted maple body. Can’t find pics though but definitely seen them about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul S Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Deep glossy solid piano black is always my personal choice. BWB scratchplate or none if the gubbins is attacked via the rear. My second choice is aged white - that lovely clotted cream colour that old white basses get. Nice WBW scratchplate. Yum. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 The neck should be the same colour as the body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul S Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 nah, I don't like black necks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ead Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Midnight Wine for me. No pics as the Fender ones all have Rosewood boards, sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellzero Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Salmon pink with a tortoise pickguard-scratchplate and cream cover pickups. That's how my next assembly will be. Looks really good just pre-fitted. Need to start working on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrevorG Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Prefer au natural with Maple necks though I've never owned one. Lighter colours for me all round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4000 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 If the neck is tinted, any sort of blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk_lefty Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 I like my butterscotch jazz, up close you can see the woodgrain through it. The picture doesn't quite do it justice 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
