The metallic/flake with pearl pickguard show-off thread

I've got a flake finished Lakland Decade but no pearl pickguard its b/w/b.

 

I have a Peavey G-Bass in hollowflake but it I can't get a decent image of it to show off the colors. It just looks like it has a rash of tiny white dots in the images I tried but live it's pretty colorful.

 

Pearl wouldn't have been half as nice.

 

Thats the one thats mostly black with some sporadic flake mixed in? I had one of those years ago too nice bass just couldn't get used to it ergonomically.

 

I've switched to shortscales and being that the Peavey is a 35" scale, it now languishes in it's case.

 

My left hand tends to not like the skinnier nut widths as much and for some reason that extra 1" scale length made it that much worse

 

I had a beautiful redwood top Cirrus, gorgeous and played beautifully, but 35" scale. This was where I found 35" was not for me so much to my chagrin, off it went. If it was 34" I'd still have it.

Otherwise, I'm only halfway to the title requirements. I have a gold flake ASAT, but no pg. I will accept partial points...

 

I may get all the points as asked.
Stingray Special SR5HH Tectonic Blue Pearl PG

 

I've been toying with a black or black pearl PG. Not 100% tho.

 

My recent Kiesel build perfectly fits your description... Kiesel factory pic, then my pic:

<edit - though not your preferred colors... sorry!>

 

That headstock looks pretty sweet!

 

That’s like if Linda Vaughan (Ms. Hurst Golden Shifter) was a bass.
Love it.



















*I got my photo taken with Linda Vaughan once at a car show. I was 18.



Yeah.

 

wait, wait! i have just the thing for this. sorry about the crappy pic. i tried to get it in the sun so the sparkle and the pearloid pickguard would really show. 35th anniversary G&L LB100. all the 35th editions were emerald green, the gemstone for 35th anniversaries. and yes i am gigging this one on friday!

 

That is cool as…I’d never own one in a million years, but it sure a looker! Congrats.
