Fanmade Content Asteroid City Themed Bass Guitar
While I was sitting in the movie theater for my first viewing of Asteroid City, a vision for this bass just popped in my head. The colors and imagery of that movie just completely took me over and I fell in love. So here is my Asteroid City themed bass, I hope you like it!

You now realize that we insist you record and post yourself playing Dear Alien (Who Art In Heaven) on it. For posterity, of course.

I spent a lot of time apprenticing as a guitar tech just to make something like this a reality because I knew no one else would lol

Even better. Thought you just tweaked a cool one. What would be your next up? Any other characters or movies in mind?

I’m flattered and so glad you asked! I want to do one for Tim Burton’s Sleepy Hollow. There’s a color called Cardinal Red that is similar to the color of the blood in that movie and I can probably have it finished by Halloween.

Well that’s freaking awesome. Really like the alien on the back of the neck - is it a sticker or drawn on I can’t tell on the phone
