Modded the Ibanez Roadster a bit.

[NavyBass]

The Roadster was looking kind of bland so I decided to modify it a bit. I put the DiMarzio Split P pickup in it, then I moved on to the neck. For the neck mod I decided to replace the black dots with Mother of Pearl dots, and I inlayed a MOP Dot in the headstock. I plan on putting an Abalone design around the dot in the headstock, I just haven't figured out what yet. Here she is.

That's cool. My only beef is that the cream-cased pickup looks ugly and/or out of place. And it's hard to see the other pup, but it's the same on my Peavey (black body, DiMarzios).

damn, too many basses...

[Pluperfect_Arson]

The look of that Ibanez Roadster really, really bothers me for some reason, and the single white J pickup looks awkward.

[Criss Frantic]

JP turn the flash on man!:wave:

It is on, hence the glare on the neck/body:wave:

[Polyamarous]

When you've finished with the Ibanez, you gonna sell it?

[blizzard]

Not bad, the cream case pickup does look out of place, but a good looking bass.

I can see you hate pick up covers :lol:

Anyway, back on topic. I think the cream jazz pickup looks out of place, I know it's a petty thing but if you replaced with with a black pickup I think it'd look amazin'

[kilian]

I don't really like the pearl dots though.. They're too big and black was better maybe. :)

[NavyBass]

Right n ow I have 7 basses and a project Rickenbacker. I'm keeping the Iby.

To the guy with the Tobias, if you only have one bass, that's a good one to have.:thumb:

[PaulR]

Heh, I think you need to colour co-ordinate it a bit more.

It's not bad looking, but its not a patch on your other basses yet.

[trumpeter]

JP great job on the inlays, the look amazing.

[basgitarist]

I don't really like the pearl dots though.. They're too big and black was better maybe. :)

I totally agree with this man. On top of that I liked the cream pick-up covers.
