Tobaccoburst? Cool, I was wondering how an Alembic tobaccoburst finish would look.  
 
I was thinking that a medium scale Europa would look great with that.

Sadow..whoski? Just look at that bass! Far surpasses the reference standard(Sadowski)of the reference standard(Fender). Pre CBS ofcourse. I think unmolested or any tint will look great on this piece. Traditional triple burst would be a jaw dropper.IMHO. Good luck with this bass whatever color you go with.

This is quickly becoming my favorite bass under construction. I have always loved Jazz basses. Put on whatever finish you like,you're going to probably have this beauty for a long time.
