What colour bass..

[Gomer Pyle]

So I have an unpainted Jazzmaster Bass body from warmoth with an unpainted Maple Neck from Allparts, and the matching black pickguard from warmoth. But I dont know what colour to go with!! I dont want candy apple red, because everyone has that. So who has a nice suggestion?

PS: All the hardware is chrome

what color bass.........fixed it for ya

 

[hover]

Chrome. Glorious chrome.

With black hardware.

 

[Osztertag2112]

A sonic blue would be neat, or if youve got a black guard lake placid would look cool too

Dont forget to share when its all done

Right now leaning towards this^ Ice blue metallic

 

[Gomer Pyle]

Oh and another question! Should I go for a Gloss finish on the Neck or a vintage amber finish?

How's the wood grain? How about a butterscotch or golden yellow stain? Looks good on jm

 

[Gomer Pyle]

Woodgrain is not fantastic, the sides are actually quite horrible to look at it. So definitly not a see through color!

 

[Gomer Pyle]

Does anyone maybe know a nice color that is on the RAL list? And has experience with how it looks?

 

[RedHotFuzz]

That Ice Blue Metallic is beautiful. One of my favorite colors is G&L's Margarita.

 

[chuck norriss]

burgundy mist, butterscotch (opaque), or a light metallic jade green

 

[Gomer Pyle]

Maybe Pelham blue? I know it's a gibson color but it looks killer!

 

[Muttleybass]

Gunmetal.

But the Ice Blue IS gorgeous.

Cover the body in leather. Always wanted to do that, but my arts and crafts skills suck.

I say black. Black with black guard and tinted maple neck ROCKS!
