    I play bass in a couple different bands (thank God we’re finally working again!) and I have a little home workshop where I build basses and do restorations on old Fenders mostly. I like the color of my Taco so much, I painted one of my basses in cement! A little dorky maybe, but I dig it.

    Love the bass man! Is that a Fender Jazz or is it a P-bass? I play six string guitar (just a hobby) and my brother is a professional jazz bassist in the DC area

    Just when you thought they’ve painted every conceivable thing battleship grey...
    If I never saw another grey vehicle again, it’d be too soon. I am even thinking about painting my driveway green or something other than concrete.

    Gotta admit, I was really confused trying to figure out how (and why) you painted a fish!

    I think it looks good! I don't care for the white pickups, but I'm probably biased as I have EMG in my main bass.

    Same!

    Thanks! I had black pickup covers at first and thought it looked a bit ordinary, so I changed them out to some cream ones. I think I like it better now.
