Sorry for the bad camera phone pic...but it's the only one I have. Maybe the TBer who has it will post a better one. MIJ Geddy Lee Synergy Green and Yellow Pearl.

My own creation - black burst on red....seven coats of acrylic lacquer on this bass.

That's a sweet Starfire II you have there. I have Lakland Hollowbody with darkstars. Similar yet different.

 

[wisconsindead]

sweet. Is that 34" scale? I bet it sounds wonderful

Gorgeous gloss on that. Love that mellowed burst. My fave pbass right there. Kudos.

Thanks Donny. I believe Pat calls it antique burst.
