The bridge is strangely cool..............

Oof. Somebody in the 80s thought that thing was going to look cool for ever. The decade o' brass.

I've got a gallon of that paint left over from painting an old John Deere lawn tractor...I think he used a roller, judging from this photo:

Unless it's the lighting, it looks a tad dark for JD green. Although, a John Deere green Rick would look OK with my little tractor:

Reminds me of Tijuana...gaudy, like it'd be hanging on a wall in some place in TJ, or off the shoulder of a bassist in one of the clubs down that way.

Doesn't look like anything that couldn't be changed back to stock without too much trouble.

Holy 70s! Probably a fine bass. Just needs some.... sandpaper?

Except the routed edges where the binding was.

Turn it into a faux S bass!

That's almost sacreligious...wait...I think it is sacreligious...

...Except that he's sanded off the binding and rounded the edges off "a lá McCartney". So it'd be a fake S.

[VRICKY63]

The binding being rounded is the "good" part to me . If I had $$ I'd have it done S style for sure.
