Photoshop Request II: A Few Requests More

All lovely works!
Gotta admit though, this one is espcially nice.
I'm still diggin' the "boner bass".
Yup, some fantastic choices there.
Actually, when mine is done, I plan on it being a "boner" bass. Maybe even 24 frets!
That'd be sweet!
That Surf Green Jazz looks nice... I think on my ten-slinger I'll put two P-bass pickups on it, one reversed, one not. With two dual concentric knobs. Yum...
Make sure the one towards the bridge is the one thats reversed, getting that treble coil too close to the bridge makes the high strings way too harsh sounding when the bridge pickup is solo'd IMHO.
Its one of the reasons I use flats on my Trabens mainly, their bridge pickups are just too close to the bridge.
I find it a bit odd that you're advertising his services rather than him doing it himself. Is he okay with this?
Fantastic illustration work. This goes well beyond mere "photoshopping"! That I can do. This is something else.
Is thndrstk6 doing this fabulous concept art purely as a gesture of kindness to his fellow TBers? If so, that's really nice of him. This level of work could be easily making him money in the right context. 
Ahem. Just in case:
I'd love to be able to see beforehand what this possible SX mod (very modest I know, but what can I do, I love the thing) would look like:
Fender Jazz-style 4-string P/J. Maple neck with black blocks. Lake placid blue body, all-standard chrome hardware, including three telecaster-style chrome knobs, flat black pickguard with black screws. I'd keep the SX "small fishhook" headstock, but no need to simulate that, generic Fenderish would be fine.
Oh, and the "flat black" pickguard would actually be homemade from a vynil LP record, like Invalid Link Removed stolen from the Telecaster Guitar Forum:
Can it be done? Should it be done?

That's not quite the same thing. As somebody that's been swamped with photoshop requests in the past, it's a lot of work. A few are usually not a problem, but he may not want to take on the 100+ requests that he gets. Just a thought.
And a fair thought at that, Stickk, would you please doublecheck that its ok with him?
Swamped with requests? 
Didn't think of that.
Hey, don't mind me if half TalkBass is already in the request queue. Maybe I should just go and try my crazy ideas without trying to be sure of the result, and if it doesn't work at least I'll have learned something.

I agree with Eagle, we should double check. But I can state, truthfully, that even via PM, Thndr told me that he was taking requests but by PM only, but will be putting the mockups in this thread. Be sure to PM the new link too.
And guys, almost a whole page without me, Tommy, or LC? Come on!
