Simple Photoshop Request

Hello,

Could someone please add some black or white jazz blocks to my bass? I just would like to see what it would look like.

I really appreciate any help.

Thanks

Shaun

You'll have better luck if you just post a picture of the Bass in the thread.
Or post it in one of the " does any one want a Bass photoshopped "threads

Those are standard on the Ibanez Roadstar basses.

Huh. Alrighty then.

To get an idea of the look, you can look at pictures of precisions with block fret markers

Thanks! That looks nice. Do you think the blocks would look better in white?

Naah. But i might be a bit black in general. If i had to make a suggestion it would be a black pickguard.

I hope your imagination will be sufficient to picture that on your bass


You are very welcome!

Why don't you just buy inlay stickers? You can get those for less than 10 bucks. If you hate it you can take them out

Done on MS paint, took about 5 seconds. Far from photoshop, but you get the point.

Thank You very much, I really appreciate it. Now, what if I do not have A imagination. Could you pretty please change the pickguard to a black one with no inlays.

Thanks

Shaun

Sure. Just because you said pretty please

I did not have time nor patience to cut out the 2-pixel strings over the pickguard. But you get the picture.

Next time supply me with a hi-res picture, and i will be able to do much more with it.
