Still better than mint green.

I'd posit that they were thinking "I like this."

 

[fhm555]

Ugh...never cared for three three burst.

 

[Madhouse27]

Is it a menthol bass?

 

[Korladis]

I don't see how it's any worse than regular tort.

I grew up eating at a table with the same design. Matching vinyl covered chairs. Watching a black and white TV, while eating Alpha-bits.

I've seen movies with sets like this and I like it a lot. Kinda tiki-era? A bit gaudy, but cool.

 

[BlueAliceOasis]

I like it. It gives sunburst some redeeming qualities.

That would look really cool on like, say, a blue bass... : )

 

[PunkNerve]

You guys.
You are aware it is in fact compulsory for every bass sold in Ireland to wear a pickguard this colour.

Am Irish, also find this disgusting. However, I am guilty of owning a green bass.

 

[antony cutler]

Lou Ferrigno's bass perhaps? GRRRR!!

Exactly. To our colorblind brothers, it looks just like red tort, no harm! Rock that red/green guarded funk machine!

 

[Gully Foyle]

To be fair, green pearl has its place

 

[ELG60]

It wouldn't have been my choice...

Would work well on a black bass
