Gold.  Sparklier the better.  Black and gold (in whatever combination) is this season's must have look!

Deffo a top contender!

Hey there!

Have U considered staining it? There is some nice grain in that wood. There is probably something that can be done to make it pop some more & then staining the wood purple or green or close to black if that's what U're after.. 

There is a guy on TB who has done that & has shared pics of his basses quite a few times & they look stunning..

I had considered loke a deep black grain filler under a stain, but ireally enjoyed the painting process.

 

I'm trying to convince the wife if i bought a spray gun, i could paint the hallway!

I live in dublin ciry centre. Not many accents i can't interpret.  Even on the page!

 

I'm happy to discuss fast fashion.

So you should maybe get one of these then... 

[jd56hawk]

Yes, definitely yellow with a black pickguard.

Going the Gibson TV yellow route is a great choice.

 

I saw this the other day of FB marketplace but the dude wouldn't post it. I'm now really tempted to do the same to my Jazz...

I meant natural wood and graphite necks matched together btw. 

It's like the past and the future existing in the same place. It breaks time captain. 

 

I thought my Status Series 2 was rather nice.

this is a warmoth bass i put together with a moses graphite neck and an original 2Tek bridge. i really love it and think it looks very cool.

 

sounds great, plays great.

 

but i just finished painting a bass and i enjoyed the process so much i want to do it again.

 

what do you think? Yellow with matching headstock? Candy apple red?

 

or just leave it? Maybe get a fancy new pickguard?

 

 

 

I'd leave it. It looks great.

You don't see many glow-in-the-dark basses do you?

You'd think they'd be easy to spot.
