Fantastic piece of pin striping right there mate looks sick :-) 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤙🤙🤙🤙

[@MackieBass]

Glad you like it

[@LS-uv9gg]

Speaking from the point of view of someone who has no talent, and a dubious sense of symmetry, that was both utterly amazing and totally nerve wracking to watch, hahahaha! Jeez man, a pleasure as always to see that kind of skill shared in your vids.

[@MackieBass]

Wow, thank you! Really appreciate it.

[@johnnycactus0]

love firebirds...love your work...what a killer combo!!

[@MackieBass]

Cheers man! Firebirds are great, but thunderbirds are better (Yes...I'm a bass player)

[@mickusable]

You are so talented Mackie, you make it look so easy (which I’m sure it isn’t) 🤘🤘

[@MackieBass]

Thanks so much! 😊It's no talent...it's practice!

[@jjj1590]

Nice to watch an artist at work Brilliant.

[@MackieBass]

Thank you so much 😀

[@geoffhall7827]

Hi Mackie, just starting out striping . After a lifetime of smoking bongs and drinking I find it hard to make a straight line. However I have been practicing following your vids . Choice of weapon is the blue band Mack triple 000 I think. It's the tear drops that get me.

[@MackieBass]

Keep at it Geoff, nobody is bor with it :)

[@paulsaunders3700]

[@MackieBass]

[@eastcoastbrushworks6327]

Cool pounce pattern grid system.

[@MackieBass]

Thanks, "home made"

[@eastcoastbrushworks6327]

@@MackieBass Clear mylar cut on a plotter or a stencil/wood burner?

[@MackieBass]

Stanley knife, thin plastic sheet and a lot of patience!

[@eastcoastbrushworks6327]

LOL!! The cuts are real precise. I would have thought it was machine cut. I have some Mylar sheets and a plotter. Maybe I’ll play around with it. My patience is thin. Lol

[@jameslonglove]

Badass!!

[@staccio80]

That’s cool!Classy touch on this axe!

[@MackieBass]

Cheers dude! It's a cool axe!

[@MackieBass]

Glad to hear this. Thanks

[@ttxela]

Excellent, did you have the design planned out or did you just go with it as it developed?

[@MackieBass]

Go with the flow, as I always do!

[@FernandoTorres-rt5zv]

what a good job man..it shows that you like what you do ... you missed opening the beer 🍻🍻🍻 hahaha greetings from La Rioja - Aegentina

[@MackieBass]

Next time!

[@TheMik088]

I had to crack open a beer after this one..

[@MackieBass]

You and I both!

[@nightster6378]

Gibson was a boy who sat next to me in school, thankfully a swat, a Firebird is a cool BSA A65 www.bennetts.co.uk/bikesocial/classic-bikesocial/buying-advice/bsa-firebird-scrambler-1971-review-value-spec Guitars are things that make great music in the hands of the right people. Pinstriping there you have me, what I know about pinstriping you could write on the back of a postage stamp with a big thick black marker, oh and Mackie Bass makes it look easy with fantastic results. A steady hand and great eye what a great result!

[@MackieBass]

Glad you enjoyed it bro. Cheers

[@tangopatela1896]

tremendo artista!!!!!!!

[@pabloromero5467]

Amazing work as always mate..❤🤘🤘

[@MackieBass]

Thanks a ton!

[@villapinstriping]

Bad ass!!!

[@MackieBass]

No my sir, bad ass is what you are...I'm only the douche...and a humble one at it.

[@villapinstriping]

@@MackieBass I stand by my original statement :) bad ass

[@MackieBass]

Likewise. Bad ass is you, my kind Sir. Me..a regular douche. And of. Respect brother.

[@karlk6834]

Mackie where you been? Hope alls we’ll bro

[@MackieBass]

All's good, just busy man.

[@HepcatHarley]

Furry end first, Good job mate :)

[@MackieBass]

Thanks 😁Gotta to remeber that rule ;)

[@Qstick333]

This is great. Do you have to put a clear coat over it or will the paint hold up to playing the guitar?

[@MackieBass]

You shouldn't need clear coat over than, no.

[@MattLipik]

Nice bro!

[@MackieBass]

Dzieki byku!

[@bbbackwoodsbbq3216]

What kind of brushes and paint do you use? Also what was that you used in the beginning to get the squares for symmetry?

[@MackieBass]

Check out my pinsriping videos...it's all there. 13 episodes I think..

[@shadowdancer2131]

Neat. What instruments do you play? I never had the patience or interest to play an instrument, although I love almost all types of music. It's grand seeing a rocker guy play a mean guitar. ☺🤘

[@timmason7430]

Bass guitar.

[@MackieBass]

Yes,I'm a bassist. Nice one.

[@MackieBass]

That't is, cheers!

[@shadowdancer2131]

😀 that's great

[@jerseyjoe1677]

How long did it actually take you from prep until the last stroke? Thanks 🙏

[@MackieBass]

Couple maybe 3 hours..

[@jerseyjoe1677]

MackieBass thank you buddy

[@bnastali]

SO COOL! Cost for such sweet work? Interested.

[@MackieBass]

Depends on a job. send me an email and we can discuss it :)

[@iomoonshack]

WOW...how do you prevent paint from scratches and from aging?

[@MackieBass]

You don't.. You can add hardener, or clear coat it, but that's completely different. Pinstriping is an old school art after all.

[@zimba599]

Nice job there man. But what happened to the "bad" bike? I learned that another man had the same issue as you do, and it turned up to be a bad diaphragm the carbs. To stiff, I believe. Anyway, just wanted to let you know, in case you did'nt know already.

[@MackieBass]

I'm taking a small brake from the bad bike...just had enough,but don't worry, I'll be beck at it. :)

[@carlosortiz821]

Nice work Man, as always... do you play the guitar in your spare time? Cheers my friend from the other side of the world (Chile🇨🇱)🤘😎

[@timmason7430]

Bass guitar.

[@MackieBass]

Well, I play bass guitar...which is very different instrument :)

[@johnmicallef3502]

Macky Wass up with the tu.. ?

[@MackieBass]

John! I had no time man, work, work work. I'm hoping after the weekend I'll crack on it. Don't worry I'll give you a call when I get stuck...which most likely I will. :)

[@badjuju6563]

Not a single headwhip was seen ...

[@MackieBass]

Simple and clean

[@airbrushingbynick6071]

Is that a Suzuki ? I think not. 😂 I GOT A JOB TO RIGHT MY OWN NAME BUTTY.

[@MackieBass]

Always! I send someone your way - then needed avangers on a custom made wheel chair...have they been in touch?

[@airbrushingbynick6071]

MackieBass . Nobody has been in touch yet. I’ve been knocking up a couple of Marvel dudes lately. My mate bought Deadpool before I’d finished it. 😂 . I could do a Buzz Lightyear. 😂 Just whittling a Thanos. Also got another hig paint of a nude infront of a Lambo. Did one before.
