I was looking at some pics from my last gig, and I noticed how funny I looked with a trans teal/blue bass and a olive green/orange shirt.
Do any of you try to match/coordinate your clothes with your bass on gigs?

Oh yeah, and black goes with anything, so I guess I do color coordinate. I haven't found a sunburst or greenburst shirt yet either.  |

So there's yet another reason why they're the finishes of choice (for me anyway)!

I USUALLY wear a black Harley T-shirt on stage (AND off stage, too!) . . . that's why I voted "yes". |
