there is something.., timeless about it (oh, that's the on-board clock…sorry)
Inner Beauty, Yes!
When this very thread started, then later have the tittle changed, I was not sure if I should (help) to show the 'beautiful' distressed (fender) bass pics I found in TB that I really love here, cause for me they're not just beautiful but even 'more' than that. But now you gave the right term of it to be qualified to put in here: "Inner Beauty"...
And no...I'm not tired watching that your beautiful Precision Bass.
Some real beauties posted already, I'll add this Spector Euro Poplar Burl to the mix...
I'm jealous, I think your Euro LX-EX's top beats mine:
So, I'll raise you one Emerald quilted maple Euro!
AAAAnnd a Blueburst:

I think Spector just about has the market cornered on beautiful basses. Your Poplar burl looks fantastic!
I'll see your gorgeous green with my limited run figured walnut NS-2J SE ...
And raise your beautiful blueburst with my Holograph Spectorbird Rex5...
Stanley Clarke's Dragons Breath series II alembic is gorgeous.

The best I can get from googling is this:
cool - but judging by the vid, he needs a marketing manager…
I don't know.., maybe a pic w/a pretty girl in a turn of the century bikini holding it… 
Ha, that bass was made for someone who's not generally liked or respected on TB. Here's more pics and info: http://www.notreble.com/buzz/2012/0...-gypsy-thief-studios-revolver-steampunk-bass/
Of my own, I'd post Looney Toon by TBer John Toon...
Of other things that are out there, how about Atlantsia?

It's all in the eye of the beholder, and even that is a moving target. A few years back, basses I saw on the "Show us your Basses" thread that I thought were really cool, now look ho-hum to me.

Also, love the dragon p bass - it's a bit different but I think it looks badass! And that holograph bass looks incredible!
