I don't really love white basses or tort guards, however, my new bass happens to be both and also the best bass I've ever had. I've come to really enjoy the aesthetics as well.

Lots of people like them, but I find them boring. Ditto black. Not a single one of the basses shown in this thread does anything for me.

Really Depends, White needs to be kept clean, looks awful with chips & lil specks(boogers) everywhere, Like with black and fingerprints & smudges. need to keep them clean. My problem with white is when it starts to age (yellow) it looks dingy & crusty,like underwear just not into it. they can be bland,but as I 've seen here with right accessories they can look fantastic!

That reminds me of a picture that was in one of the first Bibles I ever had...

Something with Abraham, but God intervened at the very last moment. Did God intervene here, too... ?

He decided it was best

Yes, I do! Put together a 5 string earlier this year, '08 neck, '18 body, love it. Still sporting the original mint guard, I was going to go w/b/w guard, we;ll see, I'm still digging the mint.

I also have a '72 P bass, the Oly white to yellow transformation, not a very good pic, but all I have now. I have a deep love of John Wetton, he put the image of a white bass in my head originally...

I agree with other posters, goes with any color clothes (I also play black and natural basses). I tend to wear black with the band that I play the 5 in, white always looks nice against the black.

My first bass was a white Hohner w/ purple pickguard. Never again.
Although - the pickguard may have been the bigger issue..
If I'm ever getting a bass with a solid color, it's likely something like lake placid blue + perloid pickguard.
Last basses have all been natural or sunburst.

Love them. My Fender '63 Reissue was a pretty bright Olympic White (a few hundred gigs ago)

OK, I'll bite

I disdain white pianos though.

I wasn't sure about white but this Stenback bass looks awesome in all white.

I had a bass uke painted Olympic White by Pat Wilkins and had a tortoise pickguard made because I like that look a lot, and even made my own headstock decal.
