It is a very nice color though....Emerald green...just like the Emperor's pet's skin color!

Not a fan of green, but that is unusually nice! Impressive.

Well, I too hate to admit it, but, that is a great looking bass. What a character though!

good taste prevents me from expressing the depth of my disgust and dislike for the emperor ...

It looks cool, I think it'd look better with a white pickguard though.

Why the heck did he "edit" Cliff Burton's 4001 in that pic?

Dunno if I'm down with the green on that...

And it's not just because of my contempt for the emperor.

I did a little search for the emperor to see what the fuss is about. All I can say is, "wow..."

Dark green is the greatest color ever in the history of colors.
