I ordered one of the Trans Burgundy Skyline DJ4s. I am (im)patiently waiting while she's back at the factory for some Chi-Sonics before she ships.

I just sold my 44-01 so I am temporarily ineligble for the club (ha ha).

I'll post pics of my new baby when she arrives...
 
Congrats, she's pretty!

+1!

And last but not least... my Bob Glaub... She's stock from (if I'm deciphering the SN correctly) '02. She may be getting a tort guard in the near future. I like tort.

OH but I'm not finished!

These aren't mine... but I had to share because they are SO beautiful...

Here's a 2013 Limited Edition 55-01 at Premier Bass Guitar in Superior, CO. The picture doesn't do it justice... the flame in the top just pops!

And a Skyline Hollow body that was refinished in Ice Blue Metallic. The owner of PBG's personal bass... Gorgeous!!!!

Anyone have any good upgrade ideas or have a source for pickguards for skyline DJ4's?

I had real silver flake pickguard created by this guy, it's on my 44-02. It's slightly thicker than a standard guard but OH SO COOL!! He was great to work with and seemed as excited as me to be creating the guard. He made a slightly different one for my Classic 'Ray. I highly recommend him!

I edited this pic to try to make it show some of the true look:

It sparkles like glitter too but this pic was taken at an angle to show the marbling/crackle.
