Model of the week 17: Blackstar - None more black

[incubus2432]

MMMMMmmmmmmmBlackstar.......lusted after by me enough that I pseudo-cloned my Laredo as a tribute to it's Darthness.



(I, surprisingly, won't taint this thread with my Blackened "faker".....I'll patiently await "Modified Laredo" week)

Taint away dude! That is bass is a beautiful piece of work by Paul W.

Ilan, to clarify: mine is from the factory original, not a modified JG/BT bass.

Thanks. So it has the maple fretboard then. Now we know about two SPC 5ers that were made. Interesting.

Some Blackstars came with chrome toasters. I have only seen a few that way but they are out there.

Here's mine, #96 of 200. 1989 I believe.
