I have been interested in the Epiphone Embassy Pro and have seriously thought about doing a nitro refin in something awesome and metallic. That is a work of art!!!!!
Thunderbirds have such a great shape for good colors that I can't understand why Gibson doesn't offer them in good colors. But, it's Gibson. There's no telling.

Gibson/Epi has a colour that's pretty much the same as BMM called Heather Poly -

I have a red bass that I am totally, completely smitten with, but I keep thinking of a refin, and BMM keeps heading the list of options...

Hah! I just stripped my only red bass ('93 American Standard in Lipstick Red) to be refinished in BMM - way classier than LR, especially on a J.

This is my reference photo -

MJT did a nice job on this. Love a crackle details in the finish. Is the upper horn a little more pronounced or is it just the angle of the photo?

It's a '93 American Standard. The traditional J body was redesigned by George Binda at Fender so it could incorporate a full length 22 fret neck. So yes, it has a longer upper horn for proper balance.
