  1. The finish and colors on this bass are not paint. It is actually colored acrylic resin dribbled into a mold along with the blackstone acrylic resin and compressed. At least that is the impression they gave me when speaking with Salwender in 1995-96. The finish cannot be rubbed off. please correct me if I am wrong. Thanks
  2. The body finish is not paint. It is colored acrylic resin that was dribbled into a mold along with the other blackstone acrylic product and then it is compressed. The finish can never rub off.
  3. Here is my Bogart story. In 1995 I was looking in the bass guitar section of the 95-96 bass and guitar buyers guide. There was a picture of a 4 string splatter finish Bogart bass. (I would find out later that Salwender called it the reggae bass.)I said to my wife honey that bass is me and she said your right it is you. I inquired to Salwender about the bass in the mag and they said that they could make a similar looking one but not exact of course. I said what about the bass in the 95-96 bass and guitar buyers guide that was displayed at the Namm show in California? They said that it had already been shipped back to Germany And I said that I would be interested in purchasing it. They got back to me with a reasonable price I made the purchase and it has been a dependable workhorse ever since. The neck is satin smooth it is well balanced and one of a kind. Here are some pics.
