Custom painting on bass body.

[BobWestbrook]

I'm creating a new bass from parts. The body I got from Ebay awhile ago, and to make it unique had a graphic artist paint to resemble turquoise stone. I still need to spray the clear coats.

We used to do something similar when I worked at hamer.it had a few morecoros to make it look more earthy.it was one of my favorite color schemes

Nice . . . love to see it coupled with a birds eye maple fret board with Abalone (or Turquoise) inlays. Can't wait to see the final product.

Wow! How much does that thing weigh? Seriously, it almost looks that real. Cool idea and great job.

 

[WoodyG3]

That is really a thing of beauty. I want one,too!

What style of headstock are you goin' with? Is it a 5'er?

Sweet! Not to sound negative, but most "artistic" paint jobs(especially non-factory)tend to look not so great...yours is not only stunning, but really original. It's tough to make a piece of wood look like a piece of stone! Subscribed!
