Thanks Fella's! I'm thinking...or rather my wife is thinking...Golden Mist Poly-Going to have RS Finish it and relic it! Any thoughts??? White is always Killer....I REALLY did like Tahiti Coral....

Looks nice! I think Golden Mist Poly would look great, but don't relic it.

I thought about that...But Golden Mist Poly may be better...or a ragged Pelham Blue....But then I would have to have my refin Pelham BLue Bird painted white...

Baz, I swear, you must go through as many basses as Jerome (a/k/a funkycarnivore) used to do at the old Pit. Only yours are all Gibsons and Gibson-type Hamers and customs.
