Blue Pearl Makeover, Or....

[bovinehost]

...my Valentine's Day present from Dargin.

You will remember that this is how it looked before:

And that's not a bad way to look, right?

But Dargin got motivated when his cousin bought the same bass but with a different guard and.....well, here you see it.

As nice as it looked before, I think we have a winner.

Thank you, Sir Dargin!

I was all nervous after seeing some gorgeous CAR bongos. Now, even with the not so great lighting, I know I made the right colour choice.

Nice lookin' bass Jack.

 

[Mobay45]

WOW!!!

Abalone looks awesome on Blue Pearl!!!

 

[phatduckk]

nice. i like it!

 

[TSanders]

Jack. Havent you learned that Dargie is always right?

Another one for abalone.

 

[cheezewiz]

Wow..that is a great combo. That pic gives me a whole new appreciation for that color.

 

[bovinehost]

Yeah, and I apologize for the lighting. It's cold and damp and grey and raining in Dallas. But it looks even better in person. I'll get some decent photos when the light gets better!

 

[Motojunkie]

That's a beauty!

 

[scottbass71]

[Figjam]

Wow,
I wouldn't have thought of it, but thats pretty damn cool. I would love to see it with better light.

 

[Big Poppa]

I have the feeling that this one will be a keeper...(at least until someone tries to buy it)

Jack is it possible to post a thread with some advice on how to take pics of a guitar properly? Probably doesn't justify a sticky but since so many people post pics here it might help. I know I could use some help.

I'm thinking a crazy thought but how about Abalone on CAR?

 

[tkarter]

I'm thinking a crazy thought but how about Abalone on CAR?

Dargie doesn't send Valentines gifts to left handed guys?

[fargus]

There was a great tutorial on bunnybass. If I can't find that one, I'll try to get some tips together. (Mostly - natural light!)

I have the feeling that this one will be a keeper..

It's a good one, boss. The acid test is live with the band in a sleazy bar. We got one coming up on March 4th and I'll get back with a full report. Sounds wonderful in rehearsals, to be sure.

Cold, damp and grey, what's that?
