Imperial troops have entered the bass!

I just put this decal on my 2011 Fender American Precision Deluxe. Pretty happy with it.

Is this the same Stormtrooper that clunked his head on the control room door?

Great, now I have GAS for a white bass just so I put this on it

Seriously though this is awesome, where did you get that decal? it's freakin' awesome, and can I get in a size that would fit on my Strat's pickguard?

Thanks, man. Playing and gigging is my outlet. Keeping it fun (and I think it looks kinda cool!)

This is the ebay listing: not sure it'll still work or if the guy had more than one to sell:

When I got the white P-bass deluxe a couple weeks ago, my first thought was the black and white reminded me of a stormtrooper. Not surprisingly, I always gig with my Darth Vader bobble head doll.



I am thinking of completing "the set" by putting a Darth Vader decal on my black P-bass ...

I dunno why, I'm for (2x10") + (1x15") too

It was in the past (Swr Goliath Jr. + Swr Son of Bertha)

It is now (Hartke Xl 210+115)

Cheers,
Wallace

Ps: Fletz... How could I ever doubt about a Darth Vader on your black P?

Pps: hey guys... look at the funny sticker at bridge's side
That's what I was talkin' about a few posts before

Isn't him a smart fellow or what?

Love that clip. Btw, Analog Kid is my favorite RUSH song. And of course, not only am I a Star Wars nerd, but a RUSH nerd as well.
