It certainly is... I've not seen a blue fingerboard before.
Feel strangely attracted to it... ohh. Excuse me.

Better pics when you can, please.

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

Lol! Sorry mate, already had a blue Spector for that

"Show us your blue fretboards" - now THAT I could contribute to for the first time!

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?

That's a beauty - 1980s Japanese ESP guitars & basses are superb bits of kit.

Well done mate!

My favourite bass colour is blue...

But will the "A" String bridge need adjusting?

See-thru blue or mirrored blue it'll be I reckon
