If I was going to get flames…don’t they go with a custom paint job on a sports car?…a cheap sports car…a wanna be sports car?
Other than that I’m in the dark on this one. …flames..hmmm.
Ahh, a wanna be sports car like a supercharged Nova? Or a wanna be chopped and channeled Mercury?
Just a different view of the same thing… my basses are set-up and painted per customer order, mostly rockabilly or psychobilly bands (see Reverend Horton Heat, Southern Culture on the Skids). I doubt that any of them will EVER meet a bow, and the only 16th notes to come out of them are from a double-slap.
I don’t think I’d ever really want to see one on an orchestral stage, as I am also a student of classical music, but in the bright lights and flying panties world of live performance they find their niche.
Personaly, being a furniture finisher by trade, I would rather see a beautifuly book-matched tiger maple in a deep golden finish, but these guys want what they want.
I’m also available for Fiero’s…
Thanks for the eloquent reply, Chris!
I’m actually thinking of velvet coating one, and painting the Last Supper on the back (replacing the disciples with the 3 Stooges, Dog’s Playing Poker, Marilyn Monroe as Mary Magdelane, a clown, and Elvis as Jesus.
Any taker’s on that one? (Have to figure out where the white tiger fits in though).
I’ll pray for you.
