Okay my last paint job i hope!
The body was all beat up so i decided to refinish it. Got the paint from guitar reranch, it's seafoam green.
Steve Morril, our local tech is making a tortoise pg for it.
This is a medium scale but fits a guitar case! :)

Cool, great color! Make sure you post a pic with the tort guard! Although the white does make it look classic...

Is that from Steve Morrill, or do you work with somebody closer out your way?

Steve Morrill scribed the original pickguard, it came out much better than i expected in fact he is going to make a pearloid one too for the other bass.

That colour combo looks killer.
I have been looking for one of these smaller size/scale P basses for ages as I'm pretty short and would be a better fit. :mrgreen:
