Let's see those Green basses!

My U.S.A. MusicMan S.U.B. bass is in the process of turning green. I hated the white textured finish so its becoming sparkle green.

I have a 4 string version of this beauty being built by Jon Maghini right now. It'll have a custom inlay on the 12th fret only (no block inlays or front dots), Luminlay side dots and a it will come with a clear acrylic pickguard as well as the black pearloid! Bass should be completed within a month. I'll posts pics of the result! :hyper:

At the same time, I'm debating about my next build, which is gonna be a Mike Lull M5, and I'm seriously considering a Green Burst like Major Metal's Sadowsky Standard. It looks clearer and brighter than his Sadowsky Modern. We'll see. I gotta make a decision on Monday the latest!

A green burst M5 would be too freakin' sweet!! Go for it!!
 
This was a bass that I sent back to Carvin...was too aggressive for my tastes, but GORGEOUS! Btw, it's still in stock from their site, and the lighting is pretty accurate compared to in-person.
