The official "Show your basses" thread part 19!

It’s the stock bridge— I did a search on the ‘bay just now for “schecter bass bridge” and a few of these are on their for next to nothing.
It’s surprising cozy to play on, feels good!

I just went on Ebay - did not find them. I could not find any that had only the 2 barrel bridge and not string thru body.

Please copy a listing for me if you can. The bridge on this bass is the 2 barrel just like the original 51.

I seem to prefer olympic white with tort guard. Left to right, Mike Lull J, Fender '78 fretless, Bill Nash P.

On the 4 string I was an early customer for him. No wait lists at the time. I don't remember exactly but was probably 6 to 9 months or so. I do remember he was always right on schedule relative to what he said.

On the 5 string there was no wait at all. He built that for the Holy Grail Guitar Show in Berlin and he messaged me on the last day of the show asking if I wanted to buy it rather than him taking it back to Russia (I live not far from Berlin).
TOO MUCH RESPECT TO COMMENT...
 
Wow!!! That is ALL I can say. Whut the Shagging hell is that? An animal skins. ...Fake? Either Shagging Way...WAY THE SHAGGING F YAE NOW THAT!...IS METAL!!!!! I know it is only what tobbaco finish? But it looks like some Florida I ate Many People tanned in the sun gator skin covering your bass man!

You can find examples of '60s vintage Dano's finished with a technique called "craqueleur". The pictured bass is a '68 Silvertone 1443 Horrnet (made by Danelectro for Sears Dept Store) that was stripped of it's red/black-burst finish (which they only came in) when I got it. I did my own version of a cracqueleur 'distressed' finish and I was very pleased the way it came out. Great playing/sounding bass too, after some serious restoration work.
