I think it maybe one of the "Foto-Flame" basses. It's not real flammed wood but a "photo" of flammed wood, stuck to the body and painted, then lacquered over.

[/quote] I've got a late 70's (black/black/rosewood) which hasn't done that but my friend bought a near immaculate 79 and nearly before our eyes as we took it out of the case, the bottom of the body started turning that milky blue colour. Days later the finish started to get the familiar hair line cracks. Very weird, would love to know what causes that reaction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
