Just mailed this one off to Fresno, but that's a clear pickguard with cartoonish lobsters under it:

Hey..... that looks like my bass!

 

[bovinehost]

Hmmm, username is "fresnorich"...... interesting. I sold that bass to someone named "Rich" in a town called "Fresno".....coincidence?

Hey Rich! That is indeed your bass, and it will arrive with the lobsters installed. Never fear, the black pickguard is wrapped up nicely inside the case.

But you can see that with scissors and funky magazines, you can have fun and change the look every week if you feel like it.

Deliver date: tomorrow!

(rubbing hands in anticipation) I can't wait! I feel like it's Christmas Eve and I'm 5 years old again. I don't think I'll sleep well tonight.

By the way, anyone know where I can pick up a few pickguard screws?

Hey, where can I get a clear pickguard for my future Bongo [sept 2004 ]?

Mr. Bryan Bootzzz's got pickguards for sale on the Bay. From word of text, I read that Dazbootman does a mighty fine job.

Upon searching, it seems as if Bootzzz ain't offering no clear pickguards for the Bongo. You could still contact him about it, I believe.

I lost a few once - I just took one of the remaining screws and headed over to the hardware store - found some that were identical.

Yep, I got mine from WD Music supply (?). I really dig it, baby.

Just curious how its gonna look exactly on the StringRay 5

The only bad thing about a clear pickguard on a StingRay 5 is that you'll be able to see the guts, because they are under the pickguard, unlike the Sterling where they are on the back. Hope that wont bother you. Heres a link. Youll need to scroll down, theres a sunburst StingRay 5 with a clear pickguard about 6 or 7 basses down.

As I suggested in the past, just rig up some awesome LEDs under there and you're set!

Lads............the Lobster Ray has landed.

We await updates.
