stoker Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 I can't help but think that a classic tobacco sunburst would look good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor J Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 It would be superb with the maple and also work with b-w-b [i]and[/i] your chrome hardware. Win win win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MoJo Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Finished at last. Not perfect but loads better than when I received it. Plays like a dream. I absolutely love it [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v215/bassman2790/Guitars/013.jpg[/IMG] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MoJo Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 First chance to use her in anger since buying her tonight at rehearsal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MoJo Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 The Ray sounded sublime through my live rig. It was the first bass (including my SR5) that has prompted a 'that sounds nice' response from another band member and the only bass (again including my SR5) that our vocalist, who is also a bassist, has asked 'to have a go on' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kees_SoS Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 The things people do to perfectly good instruments... What colour did you choose in the end. Any pics? [quote name='MoJo' timestamp='1316631598' post='1380736'] Bought this bass from fellow Basschatter Chris (Me An My Bass). [url="http://www.flickr.com/photos/markmojo/6144124787/"][/url] [url="http://www.flickr.com/photos/markmojo/6144124787/"]13092011568[/url] by [url="http://www.flickr.com/people/markmojo/"]markmojo[/url], on Flickr He had been led to believe by a previous owner that this orange peel satin black finish was the remnents of the original factory finish. To his credit, when Chris was informed that the bass originally left the factory in a beautiful trans blue burst finish, he couldn't be more apologetic. A deal was struck and now the work of refinishing the bass begins.

I'm hoping that, being that this was a trans finish bass, a nicely grained piece of wood lies beneath that awful paint job. If so, I may go for a natural finish....if not, who knows how it'll look when it's finished [/quote] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me And My Bass Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Just to clear up folks, l bought this bass from another basschatter in Ireland who had no idea it was refinished,like l did when it was sold on. Came to an agreement on price with Mojo after the refin issue came to light. I am glad it was turned out well for you Mojo and the classic sound won over for you.
