[color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]Hey guys.[/font][/color]
[color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]Well I've decided to strip my bass down to the natural alder wood body purely because I hate the color of it. It's my first bass (been playing about 9 months) and given that money is tight at the moment, i'm likely to be playing it for the next 12 months before I can consider an upgrade to a bass I would like. I like my bass fine, but the color of it (blue) almost puts me off practicing. I find it very uninspiring. Blue is probably my least favorite color for anything.[/font][/color]
[color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]I have been snooping about internet land about finishing guitars and although I have learned a lot, i'm just as confused about which route to take. All I want is a cheap, easy and relatively quick way to finish the guitar which also protects it while bringing out at least some of the natural beauty of the wood.[/font][/color]
[color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]I'm aware that because my bass is a low-end model (Yamaha RBX270J) the wood may be mis-matched, but I honestly wouldnt mind that at all. It would actually be an improvement in my eyes.[/font][/color]
