    stingray 5s (no Sterlings please)

    stingray 5s (no Sterlings please)

    I read on another thread that someone supposedly has a '69 fretless jazz bass. Someone had told him if the neck had block inlays then it was originally fretted.

    I don't like metallic colors because I don't want my guitars to look like a piece of metal, it's lacquer, it should look like a car. I quess I'm looking for the rarest out of these colors: o Daphne blue o Surf green o Dakota red o fiesta red o foam green o sonic blue o Olympic white o candy...
