Details ASAP!
What is this?!?!?

Or more like what are those:

First is my beautiful claro walnut top LeCompte Custom and the second is the mahogany back of - this might surprise a few folks - my Wishbass, which I have just completed a refin on.

Here's a pic of the maple front of the Wish' and the ash back of the LeCompte for reference!

Ibanez ATK300 - 3 Amigos....

The ATK on the right I bought off Craigslist here in Honolulu ('95-$200), cleaned it up and sold it to a friend, then searched three more months to find the Lefty in the middle that I bought off eBay ('95-$361), then saw the Righty on the left on eBay, and convinced my roommate to buy it ('94-$202). I've never seen any other ATK's in Honolulu. Musicians and Bassists come up and ask me what the heck is it, 'cause they've never seen them. Cool that they're all Ambers, and it's interesting to note that they all vary in color... am still scouring the internet for a lefty ATK305 five string.

nice composition. i had planned to take a photo like that but haven't tried yet.

Thanks. I didn't have a camera that could go manual, and as you can see, it focused more on the carpet than on the basses. But I got a lot of good ideas out of that photo shoot.

Camera was an Aiptek HD Video model, and I enhanced some of the pics in iPhoto by using the Sharpness feature. Otherwise the colors are what the lens saw, as I wanted to show the natural color contrast between the three basses.
