How To Make Renderings

Lately I have been getting quite a few emails regarding my bass guitar renderings and how I make them. Instead of trying to explain it to each person individually, I thought I would share it with everyone. I am by no means a “pro” at Photoshop, this is just my way of doing it.

12 String Octaved

The owner of the Mandobass came to me with an idea for a 12 string. It has a lot of similarities to the Mandobass, but still keeps it’s uniqueness. He wanted an underwater theme with abalone pickup covers and knobs.
