What Colour is this? or EBMM Bass Finishes Guide

[dlloyd]

Gold Sparkle seems to be the most rare, if you want to use that term. Sweet color though.

That's an ebay term

GW, those are great pics. I will add some of those later in the week. Does he have a pic of just the Gold sparkle anywhere?

Copperhead Bronze

Nice job smallequestrian. I'm honored to have you use some pics of my Copperhead Bronze SR5. This was a really good idea because EBMM has produced some of the most interesting and original colors of any other instrument manufacturer out there.

I also wanted to clarify something in regards to the Copperhead Bronze finish. You have it listed as a solid color which is fine, but I would actually call it a metallic finish. The sparkles aren't as big and defined as the "sparkle" colors, but it does have a metallic sparkle to it similar to many automotive finishes.

Wow, I wish that was a collection of basses that I owned.

I guess I could make the distinguishment(is that a word?). The problem is that a lot of the solid finishes have a "spakleness" to them, like Metal flake Green, Medallion Gold, Lavender Pearl (all of which I own or have owned). And then there are other finishes that you could say have sparkle in them, but I wouldn't consider metallic though. Its a fine line and maybe not a necessary one to make. I'll look into it, but it may not be a high priority for right now.

Nice job.

Need an edit:
Burnt Apple is a Sparkle Color but
it's listed under Trans Finishes.

Here's a listing of all the sparkle finishes that were offered for the Axis Sport (Discontinued model).
