Please tell us about the Mud Stand. :D It's an interesting concept I can't find locally and is pricey to take a blind shot on.

Thanks!
It is the smallest model and is solid/steady. I did have to remove the rear feet of the Rumble 40v3. I got it to aim the speaker up a bit and isolate from the floor--it seems to work. Probably not the best choice for taking places. It still takes up a bit of space when disassembled and I do not know how it would hold up to repeated assembly/disassembly.

why did you even click this thread if you’re just gonna be grumpy about it? Boomers, lmao
OP here--I'm a Boomer. When my kids were growing up, they were allowed to use whatever vocabulary they wanted to use in the house. My wife and I expected proper language outside the house and tried to impress upon them that foul language indicated a stunted vocabulary. I bring this up to say that "OK, Boomer" is not allowed. Playful use is fine; derogatory use...well, nobody likes my response.
 
This is such an odd thread because beauty is so subjective. I love this thing, partly because I refinished it myself and partly because every time I look at it, it makes me smile -

Others will scoff at it.

I'm well aware of the "others will scoff at it" feeling. I was wondering if anyone else would share another "outside the box" paint job.

Love my Squier Musicmaster and Musicmaster parts bass, all custom paint work done by my son.

My older daughter is working on another paint job on a Mustang body/Bronco neck project I'm assembling with parts from here and elsewhere. Knowing that my kids did these will make me smile too. Wood grain is attractive on a coffee table but not on a bass for me. And isn't there enough brown sunburst and black in the world. Rock the colors!
