Clashing Basses

Sign in to disble this ad
I've always wondered if there were any other freaky bassists like me out there. Because of this, I was wondering if anyone else had a bass/setup that clashed. In my case, I use a Traben Neo Limited that has a spalt burst pattern and a black offset oval pickguard. But, here's the weird part....I use a checkerboard purple and black strap. Anyone else have a "clashing bass"?

Hilarious. That's like the exact opposite of mine. Maybe we should switch straps.

maple strap? ouch :P

I have a 5-6kg tribute L2000, my sister knitted me a funky yellow/red strap for it. The bass is waaaaay too heavy for a yarn strap :S

When I got my lighter than light soundgear the previous owner had a 4" wide leather strap on it...and my 12 pound T-40 had a 2.5" cloth strap. Yeah I swapped those REAL fast

Overall I'm OCD so the bass I refinished black on white has a black and white checkered strap @_@
