I am bored.

I like Sparkles.

Combine those, and I feel the need for an OFFICIAL Sparkle thread.

BP, dont kill me. I know they didnt sell, and I know they wont be back.

But I love em. Ive had a few pass through my hands, some for longer than others. So heres my tribute to sparkle finishes.

PLEASE join me and post your sparkles as well.

Speaking of Sparkles Travis,
Does that local shop by you still have that Gremlin Green AL?
I remember you posted on the Guitar side about it. I sent them an e-mail once to find out about it - they never responded and I never followed up.

You will NEVER get an email response. I think they may still have it. The number is 706-323-1809 if you want to call them.


Ken, I loves me some burnt apple.

Some how if you can get that bass because you know him l'll give you a Finders fee, Thanks Again for all your Help. I did call but they didn't have anything today. DJ
 
Some pics of my first EBMM, a Stratus Blue Sparkle SR, "Ol' Blue Eyes". It's gone now, due to my utter noobishness. In retrospect, the pictures I took weren't that great. ooooooo well

For sale????? DJ

That Red 2 Pickup Sterling looks Good.
 
The Glacier Blue Sparkle basses seem to have the most sparkle to them. I wonder if that is just how they come out in photos.

I have a white sparkle but it isn't super sparkly. It requires just the right light to catch its beauty. I would think the silver sparkle would be the most striking. I say this because the metal flake on my white sparkle is silver.
 
Ooo Jack which sparkle color is that?

Jack is this your first sparkle finish? Aren't the flames sparkle on your Flaming Bongo?
