I honestly don't think CAR goes well with tort. Even vintage or Spitfire tort.
It just doesn't for me.
I know, I should turn in my membership card and pay the fine.
Now if the bass were done in Fiesta Red or Torino Red, I could see that work. Come to think of it, I don't see tort working well with any metallic finished with the exception of Burgundy Mist. Or perhaps Black metallic.
I dunno. Maybe it's because it's a Jazz? Maybe a P bass with its typically larger pickguard might offer more balance?
This is one of those rare basses where even a plain white pickguard would be an improvement. over this tort.
Thoughts?
