Clarky Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Admit it, you only bought this for when someone starts up a BC thread 'Show us your blue basses'! I have never seen a blue fretboard before, very unusual Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cetera Posted May 19, 2010 Author Share Posted May 19, 2010 Depending on how the pickups sound I may upgrade to EMGs and think about changing the scratchplate..... maybe to a blue mirror. Anyone have any other scratchplate suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RhysP Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 That's a beauty - 1980s Japanese ESP guitars & basses are superb bits of kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
