Help me identify the colour of this bass

  1. 1. Can you folks help me identify the colour of this bass, please? Asking for a friend (no really, I am) who, quite rightly, hates brown basses but steadfastly refuses to accept that he owns one.

It's more or less the color of a Hazel nut, so that might do, if the word brown needs to be avoided, but Hazel nuts are brown so... Having been an art student once upon a time, Burnt Sienna is a shade of brown that I'd say couldย also fitย this bass and that soundsย even more pretentious thanย Hazel.

This is brown:ย Fender-Precision-Mocha-Lefthanded-1975-1

Probably walnut. They do another brown one called sunburst....

That Musicman is an odd colour - and what's happened to the fret markers? It looks like a darker honeyburst.ย 

Thereย is a far simpler solution. Email the serial number to Ernie Ball Musicman Customer Services and they'll tell you - I'm guessing it's a non standard one if only from the lack of fret markers.ย 

My assertion has always beenย ย that bass players are higher up the evolutionary scale than drummers - and guitarists -ย if some of theย Basschat contributionsย to this threadย is anything to go by, and is representative of all bass players at large,ย I may have to reappraise that view.......

You guys should have a go at defining Musicman trans green - now there's a colour!!ย
