I love the pickguard and the color of the bass, but I think the big square knobs take away from its beauty. For me something smaller more round but in the same transparent purple would be great!

Overall I love it, great job! Where did you get the pickguard from?

A little over the top for my tastes but a beauty nonetheless

So, basically, you're the kind of bassist who wants to blend in with the shadows.

I'm an expert at reading people.

Wicked. It's a one of a kind for sure. I agree with the comment on the knobs.. theya re cool, but a trasparent purple knob would be way cool!
