Photoshop "mods"

Post by ilan »

Anyone else here photoshops Ric bass pics to see what possible mods would look like?

How about this one. A 4003S JG with black guard turned into a 4000.

I've done Photoshop jobs several times to get a better feel for potential mods. If I didn't have a really good idea of what I was shooting for and how it would look, I'd probably never have the nerve to cut into a perfectly good guitar. I haven't done the wave yet, but maybe some day. Hand carved in relief would also be really cool. The others were actually completed, based on Photoshop previews.

The pointier 430 is beautiful! The idea of hand carved relief for the wave reminds me of the old oak leaf, (or was it grape leaves?) Guild sg shaped guitars from the early '70s.

How about a 3 pickup 4004Cii?

I've got all the parts, but still haven't decided if I really want to do it.

Or I could get really crazy and go for four...

I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...
