in moar colors >:c

i want a 5 string bass with a daphne blue finish goddammit!

srsly though, im finna get a finskie with a maple fretboard and some light color, possibly even natural. if it has block inlays on rosewood i could live with that too. just no burst finishes.

generally to the tune of $500-1500. i've seen some decent laklands in that range, and i know their skylines have a mahoosive variety of colors (and the skyline 55-60CS is basically my ideal)

basscentral has basically exactly what i'm looking for, buuuuuuut there is literally only one of it in existence for sale (the other was sold)and i have the feeling it will be bought before i can afford a new bass

so anyone know any other companies that make 5 string jazzies with maple necks and/or block inlays?
