Sidlanir Posted February 8, 2019 Author Share Posted February 8, 2019 (edited) @Andyjr1515 Hi I use 2K metallic color mixed by a friend of mine who normally do custom cars paint work.... It works perfect for me as I'm not the best painter ... Edited February 8, 2019 by Sidlanir 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andyjr1515 Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 I like that decal! Very slick. The colour looks good. From the photos it looks a deep blue grey but difficult to be completely sure because it's so pleasingly shiny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidlanir Posted March 9, 2019 Author Share Posted March 9, 2019 @Andyjr1515 many thanks 😉 the colour is grey metallic & it’s very shiny.I’m proud of my painting as I’m not a professional painter.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpondonBassed Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 That's a great twofer. You get shiny and grainy both in the same package. Nice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sidlanir Posted March 23, 2019 Author Share Posted March 23, 2019 @Jabba_the_gut the Delanos sounds great in combination with the Aguilar OBP-3 preamp ,one of my preferred combination.... by the way the Aguilar OBP-3 preamp is to me personally one of the best on the market....

SpondonBassed Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 (edited) Is that a different bass to what you started this topic with? There have been some sudden changes if it's the same one. Don't get me wrong, they're both lovely but I am missing the grey one, mainly because I liked the headstock a lot. I thought @Jimothey had secured the reputation for major mid-build design rethinkage. Edited March 23, 2019 by SpondonBassed 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jebroad Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Thats a good looking bass. I think the grain showing through the finish is something very unique and it's surprisingly beautiful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
