ezbass Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 That is absolutely gorgeous! 😍 I assume another headstock logo was sourced, if not, how the f*** was that achieved. You must be properly made up and rightly so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, I did wonder, they don't have the greatest reputation in this respect. Whoever produced that, nailed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pea Turgh Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 Hey, pigeons! Want a cat? What about Matt black or mint white? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henrythe8 Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 Mint white on blue looks right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si600 Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 Black. Or... Steve Harris mirror? It's not quite the right blue, but... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabba_the_gut Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 I like the white one - looks really nice. If you're thinking of other options I think a white pearloid or a dark blue pearloid might work quite well. Love the blue finish on this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen Posted June 4, 2021 Author Share Posted June 4, 2021 I am not thinking of anything other than what is on view. I "knew" that I wanted a white one, but it came back with the original as a place holder and it seems not bad at all. Maybe I will change them depending on my outfit.

No worries, I just wondered where you, or he, got the 4 string one from in the first place, as it looks to be a decent one to start with !

Maude Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 That paint job is lovely, superb choice of colour. Personally I prefer the black scratchplate. If it was mine and I wanted white then I'd go for an aged cream or mint, but it isn't mine so ignore me. 😉 🙂👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have a look where I got mine from (on the burgundy SUB5). It would have been off eBay - just need to make sure you get ones with the right hole locations. I made a template to trim the pickup with a router and used this for both mine and Owens scratchplate. Cheers 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
