Show Us Your Orange(y) Basses!

Now long gone to another owner, here's my orange custom ASAT.

This is a Bo Diddley bass I made back in the 90's.

Made in Japan ESP EII J5 (not an LTD) with Sadowsky pre and Seymour Duncan Sj5 70/74 pickups. Amazing bass.

Do you have any particularly autumnal basses to share? Let’s see them!

Plenty of autumnal orange-y vibe on my '81 Cherry Sunburst:

I still cant decide on a pickguard color. Any suggestions?

I'd leave it as is: white looks just right on Capri Orange. I might like parchment or mint green, too, but nothing more extravagant than that.

My old American Deluxe Jazz (Candy Tangerine) and Hot-Rodded P-Bass (Sunset Orange Transparent). Would love to find another Deluxe Jazz in the Candy Tangerine, only this time with a maple neck and one less string.

here's my orange custom ASAT.

I always loved the design of the ASAT. The hollow body with the two humbuckers. Somehow wrong, but oh so right!

Curious as to how you are going to use the same fret markers. The ones on my bass are inlays which Spector uses on their Euro and USA models. Are you having similar inlays installed or using stickers?

They're stickers from Jockomo in Japan, I've used them on a few of my basses and ukuleles, works very well.

My 1981 Carvin LB50 Koa custom, 2015 Rickenbacker 4003 (currently in the shop for new strings, a Treble Bezel Cove, and Hipshot Bridge), and my latest addition, a 2002 Japanese Fender Jazz custom.

Orange enough?

Heres a Lakland 4-64/Glaub I had completely customized in nitro Candy Apple Tangerine.
In the second picture it has a Lakland Chisonic pickup. I didn't care for that, so I had a traditional P put in

Happy Holloween?
(Starfire finish doesn't have orange in it, but the name has orange conceptual overtones.)

A friend of mine built this ...

I think one of the Lull P-basses shown earlier used to be mine. Had a matching headstock.

I believe they called this color “firemist” in 2002.

Hallowe’en

What is the purpose of this apostrophe?

 

[Riff Ranger]

What is the purpose of this apostrophe?

Aren’t you glad you asked?

 

[Trouztrouz]

Aren’t you glad you asked?

In fact I am, as this was very interesting. Although I am a touch disappointed you didn't use "Alhollon Eue."
