Gave my 2011 Candy Cola a vintage touch...

What do you guys think?

'62 reissue tort guard, thumb rest, covers, and P knobs for extra bling...

Love the tort against the body. Covers look great
You would call that a tug bar

 

[TN WOODMAN]

Nicest candy cola I've seen. This makes it all come together.

 

[P. Aaron]

For a Jazz Bass, that's very attractive.

 

[bluestarbass]

If you're trying to show off a cool bass, don't put an even sweeter purple and gold p bass in he background. That thing is amazing!

 

[merc50]

Sorry, your right...tug bar...or tug bars in this case.

I see you're flying your LSU and OU colors.

 

[Thomas Kievit]

Sweet! You can be a proud owner for sure!

Yikes, I am a Texas guy...but I do have a candy tangerine Setzer guitar...only problem is I went to NTSU not UT. I need something green now LOL.

 

[RBrownBass]

Great looking bass. I'd go with the black Jazz knobs, tho.

 

[CBNJ]

Tort works on everything!

I really like the P, though..

 

[Pet Sounds]

Yeah! What's the story on the P? Love that color. Is it a Fender?

 

[GAPendragon]

Very nice. I've been looking at Jazz basses in Candy Cola but was leaning toward a black pick guard. I may have to reconsider.

 

[merc50]

The P was was a surf green Fender 57 reissue that I bought new in the mid 1980s and ruined the finish on dropping it, putting decals on it, and so on and I had it painted Plum Crazy Purple to match my car.

Edit: Here is the original post about it:

BTW, looking over my past posts I just realized my candy red bass is a 2010 and not a 2011...and the green P was/is a 1986 AVRI. Can't believe I got the year wrong on my own post...geez.

I like the PG -- not so much the knobs. Would have kept the J knobs. Those make it look more Squire-like.

 

[mikeswals]

I love Jazz Basses.
I especially love that Shelby autographed mustang dash bezel.

I've got a White Pearl pg due tomorrow that I am putting on my Candy Cola P-bass V with a maple neck. Seeing your bass has me second guessing my choice. :scowl:

 

[landau roof]

Excellent taste, sir. Would have done the exact same if it were mine. The Lakers P is pretty cool, too. Has a Mardi Gras feel to it.

 

[A-Step-Towards]

I would have went mint , but looks good. I seriously have wanted your purple P for Years now.
