I gave myself #6.I don't see YOU on this list
Re: Katy, Slash, and Catocasters.
Too late. Katy is #1, and numbers are assigned. And Catocasters are perfectly fine for here, IMO. Along with cat basses.
Slash, on the other hand, is easy enough to drop, and I have no problem doing so.
Woo hoo! The sticker for the back of the Hello Kitty Bass hath arriven. I'll apply it when I have brighter light.

You know you pull off the top layer once you’ve applied that sort of sticker right?!!
Right. I just laid the sticker on the back to take the pic, I didn't stick it on. My old eyes need a bright, sunny day to actually apply it.sorry for staying the obvious, but I have seen some people not realise in pics before!
These now have pride of place in the living room. Hoping my daughter will be more inspired to pick it up if she sees Hello Stratty there!
The chicken to the right looks like my spirit animal.
Today is a bright, sunny day, so I applied the back sticker.
Brainstorming another Hello Kitty Bass. Basically a sticker on the body, decal on the headstock, and cats paw inlays.
I'm not as sure about this one as I was about the plaid one; I knew that one would rock. This one kinda feels forced.
Also, Hello Kitty isn't an outline sticker, it's white filled, which is a glaring distraction from the Sonic Blue.

Not liking that sticker for that bass. Needs a small and tasteful mod.
Maybe a smaller one to go in the space under the bridge to the output jack area,
Like this?
+1
What if he very carefully cut around the outline to lose the excess? That would def be better
Trimming is the only way for me.
Though the location of it on the arm rest area means it will be seen little while playing and will eventually get rub wear.
Under the strings on the pickguard is another choice I like.
I've been looking at outline stickers, with no fill. If I decide to go that route, which I'm doubting more and more. The blue doesn't seem to go with Hello Kitty, no matter how many bowls I smoke. It feels forced.
And? Is there any progress on yours? I'm considering doing another one, converting a Catocaster to a shorty bass.
