Sticker basses? Post 'em.

I know a lot of you probably hate punky sticker-covered basses, but if you have one, post it! I got some stickers today and started covering my shambled Jazz Bass in them. Doesn't look too great yet, but it's on its way.

My mom bought it for me when I was 16 many years ago
I cleaned her up and donated it to this kid at my church because his mom got laid off and couldnt afford a guitar

I dont own the Spector anymore either

I know it's not what you had in mind. It's a work in progress and I have to choose my stickers carefully

oof, that's quite the color. Definitely needs some stickering.

I'm taking the opposite approach, pretty much any sticker I come across is going on this guitar. Just picked up a few at the record shop and one from my favorite local brewer.

Here's an old picture of my first bass, a ****** renegade p-bass copy. Probably one of the worst bass I ever played, plywood body, the neck was sticky, the truss rod seems to be a little loose in it, tuners didn't really worked, pickup broke 3 years ago. But I loved this bass so much back then.

my never ending frankenstein project called "The Thang" it is a Ibanez Roadstar two guitar body with all the trem routs filled and the horns re-cut, a e-bay neck [which I don't like and plan to change out one of these days] a fender bridge, and a Teisco pickup.

A steady supply of cool stickers can be difficult to find, and ebay just is not punk enough. Both my good basses (ie they are seen in public sometimes) have Grateful Dead skull stickers on them, and one of them has a Buddhist wheel of Samsara on the back (I really 'get' the idea behind this wheel). Pics to follow.
