The subtleness of the pinstripe is frightening on a JG. That beatifull!

Nice, Bill. Looks fab on the walnut as well.

Black is so hard to photograph!

Are those Blackstar models?

No, all three are of the same pinstripe binding 4003.
I was just trying to get a shot that showed off the binding.

Paul, the quickest "field mark" of the Blackstar is the black-painted fretboard with tiny white "microdot" position markers:

Does here anybody want it before I list it on Talkbass?

Oh, that's right. I keep forgetting about that. Thanks Paul.

So how did one obtain a Black/Black 4003 with the pinstripe binding? Was it an option for a time? Or were they a limited production run? Or a one-off?

I've always called it "doublebound".

Did I just spot another on eBay? Is this binding only rare on Jetglo?

No, it's just rare. I've never seen it on Mapleglo like that. Interesting!

That bass was originally Fireglo.
