Derek, or as I call him, Mister Beee-rooks, is the artist relations guy for EBMM and, if your bass hero there was really super nice, he may have gotten the bass from Mister Beee-rooks, who will subsequently have paperwork with all the sordid details about the instrument in question.

Isn't this a great place?

Just PM Big Poppa, he'll be glad to give it to ya..... :D

Having seen CBP in the wood (flesh), I can say that it can easily look a bit green. To me, anyway. (PS: I'm not colorblind!)

And don't forget that digital cameras and monitors can distort colors.

EBMM colors are notoriously hard to photograph. They just don't look the same in person as they do in pictures (they look BETTER!).

I stand by CBP.

I'm saying TEAL, but not sure if it's trans or pearl. Is Teal Pearl an option on Rays? If so it's not one I've heard of before...

Hey everyone,

Today is Derek's Friday off so he wasn't able to respond as quickly as y'all..

I checked their file and it seems this bassist likes teal. Even though the first picture really really really looks like Carbon Blue Pearl, I don't think we had that color available when he was having basses shipped to him. One, back in 1998, was finished with a color called "Teal", and later we shipped him a couple Trans Teal ones. My vote is Trans Teal.

Have a great weekend!
-Beth :)

The ONLY reason why I dont think its '' Trans Teal '' is because I do not see any wood grains on his bass - and with Trans Teal, you can see the wood grains under the paint


PS - I wrote Derek, Im waiting for him to reply


Thanks guys, for all your help, it is GREATLY appreciated!

How many people form the company have to tell you that it is trans teal? Save Derek the time of writing you a letter and believe me.....
