Oooh a rubberized yellow finnish would help the bass cling to the body!

I know, I know, as if there aren't enough threads/choices/CEO's bending over backwards to keep knuckleheads happy all regarding "what if" and "I miss" colours but I just got to thinking, wouldn't Silverburst look AWESOME!!

:cool:

anywho... that's it.

:D

Yeah, awesome idea! It could go from silver to, to, to... errrrrm silver?

Psyc, that was a real bad idea imho:D

Aah...but no where near as silly as a "black burst"....

Dark black to light black?* Typically comes out looking like a really good way to obscure an otherwise nice looking maple top!

I'm not a fan of black instruments (or fingerprint magnets as I call them) as it is but the "black burst" just gets too silly for words...see...I'm speechless...right now....I've got nothing....ughh...yep....nngggg....nothing....

[* Maybe that could read "None More Black to Doesn't Quite Look Like Death"?] :D

I'd say it's a tie between blackburst and clearburst:p
Or, as we so fondly say "Sh*t Sandwich"

I assume that means you won't be lining up for the blackburst limited edition forum members bass being offered at another forum :p

If there's the option to have the ltd blackburst bass done with 6 strings, 25.5" scale length, tuned up an octave, 3x MM90 pickups, finished in MOG, martini glass inlays, and have something like....oh, I dunno....."Albert Lee" written on the headstock....well, then, I'd be signing up for one of those for sure!!!

If, on the other hand, you can have anything you'd like as long as it's a bass in blackburst (I can hardly bring myself to even type it!;) ) then....nope!
