This is a pimped bass😂😂

That is cool, do you know what it would run if somebody with out a mate had to pay to get it done?

I’m not sure Toby @T_dub,
I was going to paint it, and the quote to paint was $1000 aud,
House of colour paint.
More than the price of bass👍

damn, yeah, for that price, I would attempt it with spray paint and masking tape. may not be a pro paint job, but it would be punk AF!!!

If I can find me a beater bass, I may give it a try, sand down or rough at least, prime and spray away.

If nothin else, it will chip and wear and look like it is aged sooner then waiting years on end. :+1:

Loving it, I am defiantly going to have to do something like that with my DEAN MetalMan bass

Wrap is probably not an option, nor is a professional paint job, so it is gonna come down to black and orange spray paint, primer and sandpaper, masking tape and a little luck.
won;t be perfect, but from a distance, won’t be able to tell much.

Rotosound SM66 swing bass round wounds.
The black one is my first bass and the pimped one was exactly the same in its former life😎

Awesome Brian.
Now that you are done with it, take about a week to play with her, then get her in a box and ship it directly to my doorstep. :wink: :wink: :wink:

The RBX is a neat little bass. I had a lot of fun playing with 32" ones.

Cute little MIJ’s usually not too expensive.

Someone is selling a fretless version of it and looks amazing. It is only 100€

Sadly we still cannot travel between regions in Italy.

Amazing! Incredible job there. Looks like it was intended to be that way. And I love the optical illusion it creates of the lightning bolt being a hole in the body. Or at least it does that with my eyes anyway.
