What's a cooler color scheme for a bass?

[TyroneK(prettypretty)]

Which color scheme should I go for?

I've been thinking of getting/building a new bass guitar. Not quite sure what color to get though.

Pros for Black: I like the way it looks. It looks mean and angry. Like me.

Cons: I alreay have a black bass. Maybe I should vary it up a bit. Also, if I'm building, it's going to take longer to paint the bass a solid color.

Pros for Natural: I like the bare wood scheme. "All" I'd have to do would be some light staining and poly/laquer coating and wet sanding/polishing.

Cons: Well, it's not quite as mean looking as the black. Also, if I got a natural body, I'd definitely want to get (my weird aesthetic sensibilities kicking in) a block inlay neck. That's a lot pricier if I wanted a nice one.

Anyways, I'd like to get some YW opinions.

dude, i've met you. you're not mean and you're not angry. go for a white fluffy looking bass. that's more like you. hahah just kidding. :D

[teaz0r]

i like the black one. it's hot.

I play bass too, and I have a black one.

If you used a black one though...holding that big heavy black bass in your hands rocking it back and forth to the rhythm and all…someone on this site might say you have some unconscious fascination with the black male penis myth and that you are were self hating and brainwashed, so I think it is best that you stick with the tan one. haha :D















(j/k). :D :lol: This is what BBS pyschoanalysis does to the mind when overexposed...Allah help me.

and if you don't pick the black one, someone on this site might say that you're racist.

what a dilemma.

[bigwong235]

i say go w/the black. or if you can find one, a deep dark red one.

Yeah that's true too. :D God Bless Amerikkka...

anyway back to your guitar. Chicks love big black basses. Trust me. B) Go with the black one.

[kimpossible]

I say the wood just to be contrary to everyone else. Only the black one if you can have a custom flame job done to it.

Go for black....unless you plan to play for phish or something.

[bigwong235]

a little pricey though.

if you get a yellow one, you can get yellowworld.org painted on it and promote for the site when you get famous and go on tour! :D

I got a cystal blue ibanez guitar myself.

[Fireblade]

Get the black bass, but add red flames to the sides or something. Or a sticker of Yellowworld on it. :lol:
