OT: Checker Cab refinish.........WARNING: NON-EBMM CONTENT!

[RitchieDarling]

As some of you might remember, several months ago I was working on a Checker Cab motif to put on a SUB Stingray.

I couldn't bring myself to do it, and sold that bass to KennetB.

Instead, I bought a Yamaha SBV bass from fellow forumite DaphneBlue.

And I sent it away to RS Guitarworks.

Well, here is the result!

I guess I rocked too hard! I'm getting old!

They did a damn fine job!

If you ever need a refinish, I highly recommend them!

Next project WILL be an EBMM!

Probably a SUB Sterling. Hawaiian shirt sparkle with "tiny bubble" inlays!

I wonder who inspired that?

[Steamthief]

Awesome. Love the matching headstock.

Wankin hurts doesn't it?


Good looking finish on the bass. Your finish looks painful Ritchie.

Are you trying to look sexy with your jacket unzipped so far??

HAHaahaa, full speed ahead my friend .. just take it easy on the back. AND oh yeah, don't think you'll find and EBMM that needs to be refinished

That looks pretty good, Ritchie.

I like!

Just for informational purposes, if someone were going to have, say, a Checker Cab finish put on, say, a SUB, what kind of dinero are we talking about?

That's what I was thinking.

No way! The zipper is broke.

That looks pretty good, Ritchie.

It was $385 including shipping costs.

I've been bugging Sterling for a yellow bass for ages. He just shakes his head and walks away.

Hmmm, a yellow bass. I'm excited and repulsed at the same time.

Cool theme Richie.
