How about a Nash Bass? If you like the relic'd look...

Personally I don't think any of the 'scarring' looks natural, but then again unless you know where every scrape and ding on your bass has come from then it very rarely can.

Here's one I made earlier....started as an old Brandoni bitser (was oil finished) and ended up with an old style paint job, bashes and all. The colour doesn't really work in the photo, but its Fiesta Red (pinkish but more red than it look on my screen). Sounds great (with flats) but I've got a bit of earthing hum I can't get rid of.

You can do it yourself, :) but its not cheap or easy...
