[giglawyer]

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hahahahhahahahahahhahaha you gotta love precisions

You can just rout it out if you want to change..or..wait...

 

[Rosebud]

Really nice man.

 

[mkrtu9]

thumbs up for something original

 

[GobBass]

P Bass players for life.

 

[Showdown]

Nice. I've been wanting to get this:

The logo from a Gibson Thunderbird.

 

[joeyl]

I always kind of wanted to get something like this.

It's pretty subtle, but any other bass player would know what it was..

hhmm, a bar code, I don't get it

[Meyatch]

personally I think I'd like it better filled in, but you could always do that later.

 

[WMV2]

I actually really like it dude. It's straight to the point.

 

[father of fires]

It Rocks!!! Very original and Cool Idea. You can get double J's on the other arm.

I was thinking about a bass bridge on the other arm then strings across my chest.


Am I joking?

 

[father of fires]

Why are the PU so far apart?

Cool in any case.

The picture I had had them really close.

I told him to leave a gap 'cause I was afraid he'd make it one piece.

I was worried about it at first but, I don't mind.

 

[SuperFineLin9]

nice! Im considering getting a bass related tattoo soon

 

[superfunk47]

I dig it. I might get some bass related ink someday. Nice to see some non bass clef ones out there

 

[father of fires]

personally I think I'd like it better filled in, but you could always do that later.

Me and the artist talked about shading it or filling it in later. This design has a lot of room for growth.

It's crazy. I'm 26, this is my first tattoo and I'm already planning another one.

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

My wife thought I was super nerd for posting this the second I got home.

She got her 4th tattoo tonight as well and I am fairly certain it'll be on facebook by tomorrow.

Nice. I've been wanting to get this:

The logo from a Gibson Thunderbird.

I own a Thunderbird as well.

They are both iconic basses but my heart will always lean towards Fender.

I have retired my '75 P from active duty. It has served me well over the years. I feel like it would get me on its arm if that was even possible. Or am I just crazy.

My main gigging bass now-a-days is a G&l Wunkay so, I guess I'm kind of a Leo fan boy.

congrats on your 1st tatoo, it is very addictive so a little advice for your next one plan it out well before hand and make sure it will fit with other ideas you may have in the future

i got a bass clef on my fore arm (just under the elbow inside) a few months ago, the only pics i can find on my pc are as it was getting done...... so ill grab some pics tomorrow off the wife's PC

i too am planning a second, well saving up for it. LOL a cobra insignia from GI joe, on my opposite arm, i really want it before the movie comes out though because i recon LOADS of people will get it after, just like transformers

 

[With Lime]

I think that's really cool. At least its not a bass clef like everyone else has.

Yeah that's what I was expecting. Right on man, I think that is a kickass tat, now I'm just bummed that I didn't think of it first!

 

[Higgins666]

I like it, I was expecting a bass line drawing, how's the arm for playability?

 

[flea claypool]

I always kind of wanted to get something like this.

It's pretty subtle, but any other bass player would know what it was..

if john turner got something like this it would be a bar-code

 

[krustwell]
