ok so i have always loved the shape and feel of the vampyre.
i have always loved the sound of the thumb nt.
i love the Two MM-style Bartolini pickups in my tiger.
=
i am thinking of getting a cs vampyre nt
basically i want almost the same woods as in the thumb nt body Bubinga Pommele neck Ovangkol fingerboard (i know they dont use it normally ) Wenge with Two MM-style Bartolini pickups with a Active 3-band electronics by MEC

color i am still not sure on but you get the idea
so what do we think ?
 
Sounds cool! As for finish, there are very few colored finished that work with bubinga due to the dark wood. Red works best imo, any darker shade of red.
 
bubinga pommele vampyre would look so... woah... like an evil possessed cello!
I wouldn't color it.
 
The Thumb NT woods are awesome, good choice. I wouldn't colour it either.
 
i dont think wi will wel see how much it is before i get my hopes up
