My 62 Pbass was stripped of its original finish long ago and redone in natural ...

4003 has some nice maple grain going on

You can see quite a big of the wood through what's left of the finish on my 1980 Tokai JB

And the walnut on my old (long ago stolen) Aria SB700

Oh my Lord, these are beautiful! The grain-matching is so professional; I wish you'd donate to my charity (me!). What's the inscriptions on your neck plates? Can't quite tell.

Here's my plain old j copy parts bass, GF pawlonia body in what they call a sunburst (I'd call is a red burst).

And the back side, showing more grain (posted this earlier here)...

Going to be ordering a Fender Jazz bass FSR in natural ash with block inlays soon. Getting several grand from selling off my gun collection. And also a '72 Thinline Deluxe reissue in natural.

Not a bass, but its still got nice grain, its a Fender and I'm really proud of her.

You have 5 knobs and 2 are stacked what do they do? I'm thinking stacked volume, blend, Bass, stacked mid, treble, mid freq select switch, active/passive switch. So why is the vol knob stacked? And the mid stacked too?

Just for fun, post a photo or two of your open grained or wood stained bass (no painted or otherwise solid colored basses).

In other words, lets see that grain!
Stained is fine, so long as your bass shows the grain.
I just want to see who else is owning sexy woody basses.

Here's mine! (sans strap-locks)
