I'm with Rodent on this one. I'm in love with this color on this bass we just finished.
It's "Daytona Sunset Orange."

I'd like to see that color on a traditional Fender style bass. I bet a jazz with a parchment white pickguard in that body color would look killer.

Almost anything by Ritter. This "late lounge" is to die for. Like holy shit.... :shock:

I Emailed Ritter to see if I can send any of my basses over to him to do this finish on, and he (Jens) wont. I would have easily paid him $1k to do each and every one... but no sir. :( :cry:

Custom colors are absolutely no problem to do in either Poly or Nitro. If you have an example of a preferred color, it's rather easy to have a body (and even a matching headstock) finished with it.

all the best,

YA I got an example of a custom color (s)
this one comes with an 8,000.00 upcharge :lol:

I would definitely choose Candy Apple Red - so hard to find a higher-end Lefty Yamaha with that color. I think I might have the only one, it seems, in my BB300.
