Best finish with gold hardware?

I suppose I have a bit of bias, but gold hardware on red does it for me.  I wouldn't have bought a Spector with gold hardware if it had been any other colour.

I'm bound to agree! I usually don't like gold hardware, but my 2001 Warwick Streamer LX is a nice exception.

I had a gold bass made a few years back by Warmoth. Gold flake with gold hardware and frets. I may even have had Optima Gold strings on it at one point.

Having said that I also have a hankering for a purple bass so it's the colour that I'd go for now

Just a general discussion...

I have a bass Ive taken the paint off.

Looking for suggestions on what could look well with the gold hardware.

I was thinking Metallic Purple, Or Dark Metallic Green.

Open to suggestions - pictures welcome...A56B664C-A78C-4090-902C-AB670285BB08.thumb.jpeg.e7667d963eeb477e6479559732e3d9e2.jpeg

Purple! That's what I was aiming for with the fretless I put together. Gold the gold sorted but have never got it painted. I really wanted a glittery/flake finish.

I had this black and gold Limited Edition Stingray at one point. It was a lovely bass and a good gold combination IMHO, but it was like having a boat anchor hanging around your shoulders 😬.

You’re showing your age, mate!! 😂 how many of us never gave a thought about the weight of a bass (until over the age of 50 ish!!) 😏😀
