One I wish I still had. The fingerprints were always a nightmare though. I’d get it in pewter or white (and change hardware colour to silver) if I ever went there again.

Speaking of NE2s they really do look completely crap when they go for white with gold , far worse than turdburst, don't they? Can't imagine any self respecting bass player touring with Eric Clapton or Phil Collins would ever be seen dead playing one. Amateurs eh?

marcus bell Posted March 14, 2020 Author Share Posted March 14, 2020 I was looking to get some feedback on how the design looked to people, without blowing my own trumpet so to speak... now I get it may look bad but I was genuinely just excited to show what I had come up with myself, not look to ‘self promote’ Apologies M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was just a bit pis*ed off that Nathan was able to play the bass and sing at the same time (I find it hard enough just playing the bass), but someone had obviously nicked his drum kit.

Nathan's white NE2 is iconic and, come on, it looks stunning. It's a beautiful, balanced design.

No matter how elegant, balanced and good looking a bass may be with white and gold hardware it's just wrong. FACT.
