More Prototypes
for the upcoming blink-182 tours, some friends have been working on customizing my signature fender basses. the first set of ideas came in this morning from our eternal friends at tokidoki. these are the very first hatchlings of ideas, but i’m putting them up so that everyone can see the development from idea to stage. just got these five minutes ago. they’re looking great already. please tell me what you think!



April 2nd, 2009 at 7:41 am
pink bass
although i like the dinosaur one
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:41 am
nice, but need more style ( solid ) it’s to much emo
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:43 am
j’aime beaucoup le Prototypes ! =)
xo Markus’ <3
Love Youu
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:43 am
when will we find out tour dates?
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:43 am
Rad!
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:44 am
ah those are so cool! i love the first ones colors butbi like the second ones design but i theyre both equally awesome!
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:44 am
Hey Mark Theyre Awsome
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:45 am
WOW!!! Are those buyable…??? I need it…..lol yeah its awesome
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:45 am
lovin the silver one! how about red?
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:45 am
I’m loving those designs! I wonder what the finland bass will look like!
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:46 am
TOKIDOKI AND BLINK182 FOR THE WIN!it will look like one hell of a kickass bass yo!
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:46 am
They’re awesome!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:46 am
well im not really into the asian animation thing
and its not really blink-182-ish
but if you like it then thats all that matters!
i dont really care what your bass looks like
as long as i get to see you on stage playing it!!
i cant fucking wait!!!
love you mark!
<3ash
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:47 am
too asian. no offense to them but if Jackie Chan played bass guitar then maybe this is the design he’d use.
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:47 am
Toatally awsome please email back
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:47 am
love it! will definatly give your bass a little spunk!
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:48 am
it looks amaziiing.
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:48 am
Awesomeeee!!!!
Purple is more you!
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:48 am
I like themmm, but still nothing beats the pink bass or lettuce.
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:49 am
especially diggin the grey one as it gives a better “stickers -all-over-bass” effect. the tattooed tokidoki girl on the white one rules, however
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:49 am
Too sick for words.
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:50 am
I can’t wait to see your bass on the tour’s its gonna be pretty rad. id love to get my bass like that.
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:50 am
These are cool but i just cant picture them on a blink tour. You should let all of us design something.
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:51 am
Love them
epic win
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:51 am
Thats incredibly cool. I really like the second ones cartoons as a whole much better but the first one has that insanely cool burger and meant…
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:51 am
Wow that’s kind of awesome ! But it needs to be more colorfull ^^
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:52 am
wow…that looks amazing Mark…make a good shirt too! Great work buddy!
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:52 am
Thats Effin Sweet
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:53 am
AWESOME!
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:53 am
Dude, that is freaking awesome. Seriously. Whoa.
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:53 am
I absolutely love them both man:D you should get yourself a really cool bass, coz half of this world will be watching you play it!!^^
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:54 am
Seriously?!?!? Those are both amazing!!! I would pay good cash myself to get one of those. They are both really rad, I dig the purple one a little more but I must say they still won’t beat the plaid pink one from a few years back. Looks good anyways!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:54 am
The first one is great, i really like it although it seems a bit much.
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:55 am
I like it, but i think that the design of your pink bass is the best
Anyway i like the most the 2nd design
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:55 am
They’re really awesome
I have a toki doki jacket and well
I love anything by them.
Lucky dude very lucky.
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:56 am
They look cool!
I prefer the first one.
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:56 am
This is pretty awesome! Did you give the direction or vision for the design. It’s a little anime for me, but the design is way rad!
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:56 am
I’m not gonna lie to you. I think those look really cool. Very colorful and very unique. I’m personally a bigger fan of the purple but why not have both? Is there a plan for custom inlays in the neck of the bass?
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:57 am
Wow those are super awesome, very nice. tokidoki have some really wicked designs.
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:57 am
DUDE. the bottom one with the dino is hella sick.
i feel like having a character on your bass playing a bass. is kinda strange.
and from the looks of it. he doesn’t have a bass player on his bass so he feels the same about this issue. ha
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:57 am
This purple are great!
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:58 am
that’s amazing dude!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:58 am
In Germany you should play the purple one xD I like the horror mouse
Is it the front or the back of the corpus?
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:59 am
hey mark i really like both

but i like the second one better
with love
CHILE !
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:59 am
O.O i want to go to there.. T_T
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:00 am
I think there are too many pictures on it. A few sketches with a cool color in the background would be enough.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:00 am
They are really original.
My favorite is the second design.
Color pink or electric blue would be great too, but are beautiful anyway.
xoxo

April 2nd, 2009 at 8:01 am
Looks super cool. I like the purple better I think. It has more life to it.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:01 am
they look awesome man. Is the mrk 2 version of ur bass coming out for sale this year? i hope they do man they looked well badass.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:01 am
AMA-ZA-ZING
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:02 am
I LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i especially like the gray one.
Mark, you are a lucky man.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:03 am
These are pretty sweet.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:03 am
PERFECT; AWSOME; UFFFF, MAGNIFICO!!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:04 am
The first is better, anyway!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:04 am
On second thought, that bottom design may look really cool (and more colorful) if it had a bright pink or yellow as its background color.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:04 am
haha well, I like them, but I say brink back the plaid pink one!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:05 am
those are awesome mark, i would buy them!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:05 am
OWWWWWWN ;33
Very cute. I loved it!
they’re so great! <33
Ps: that dragon with lasers is the better. Is the dragon that attacked you and tom? HAHHAA.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:06 am
more happy critters
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:06 am
i think those would be rad… The Gray One is the Best!!! try to change the gray to green.. just a suggestion…
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:07 am
These look awesome!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:07 am
Yea these look great! I thought that the first one look good. =)
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:08 am
the second one is much more bad ass, neon green in the background!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:09 am
i’m lovin the first one
purple ftw! Always loved that pink bass of yours.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:10 am
Wow!!
Thats awesome
you should do it as a giveaway – to me
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:11 am
Mark man, you have to stay classic with the pink or blue bass. No anime or pictures.. just the bad ass pink or blue =)
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:12 am
I want one! Can’t wait to see them on stage
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:12 am
Those do look pretty sweet…i could see you roCKin that on stage!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:12 am
Im not really diggin that. Its too cartoonish. But its not up to me……..
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:13 am
I like the 2nd one. The godzilla thing is awesome.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:15 am
both designs are pretty sweet. although i have to say the silver wins, only because you can see whats going on with the characters and details on that one a lot easier. the purple one just seems darker. but the donut UFO is pretty damn awesome on the purple one.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:15 am
Um they’re cool but PLEASE bring out the pink bass!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:16 am
I’m digging the purple one it’s sick
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:17 am
The purple one is looking fucking awesome!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:18 am
liking the second one a little more.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:19 am
bring back the old green bass u retired!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:19 am
nowww will we be able to buy them is the question
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:20 am
the lettuce is so much better than these prototype
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:20 am
pretty fucking sick =]
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:21 am
really. Really gay. Just grab a normal guitar, slap a blink bunny on it. And know it looks bad ass.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:22 am
My response is mostly positive. I like how different it is from the past bass… it’s indicative of how you’ve changed as a person, just as I hope the new blink stuff will be indicative of how y’all have changed as musicians. Change is good, no matter how wonderful the stuff from the past might be.
I also like that even though it’s different, it’s not “matured” meaning, it’s not serious and boring now. It’s still ridiculous, goofy, and colorful. It’s still YOU, which is awesome. Not watered down, just evolved. Word.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:22 am
They’re fucking awesome!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:22 am
The purple one looks sweet. I like the lightning bolts on the right side. The colors look sweet on that one.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:23 am
this is pretty tight. i liked the tokidoki tour bus +44 used, that’s what i was reminded of
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:23 am
Hey, they’re pretty awesome looking already. I’m especially liking the doughnut on the second design
x
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:24 am
i think i dig the second one the most
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:24 am
would you give me one?
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:25 am
the fisrst one is the best!
please come to Argentinaa
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:25 am
I like the second one better, personally the guy at the bottom center could almost be you! ^.^
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:26 am
they re great!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:28 am
Really enjoying the purple one. Also enjoying the plural form of the word “tour” next to “Blink 182″ So stoked.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:28 am
would there be no pickguard? that would be cool cause then it could fuse the jaco pastorius jazz bass and your bass with the pbass quater pound pickup together with a lil asian zing. think about it.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:29 am
Really enjoying the purple one. Also enjoying the plural form of the word “tour” next to “Blink 182.” So stoked!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:29 am
WOW! fresh!!
the above one is really catchy, while the grey one is more calmy.
both awesome!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:30 am
Sick, dude! Hope they turn out great!
See you soon!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:31 am
Very cool indeed, esp. the top one! No need for changes there IMHO =)
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:31 am
Hey Mark the prototype is amazing man! I loved the purple …
=)
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:32 am
It`s great!! totally “mark hoppus”, if you ask me. will look great next to the pink bass.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:32 am
Not my taste as a bass playin art-director / graphic designer. But yeah, i believe that a lot of teenage kids will love these designs.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:33 am
Those are amazing man, I can’t wait to see them in action.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:33 am
I think that the both are pretty good =)
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:34 am
The purple one is so sick!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:35 am
they’re great!!!!!!!!!
please come to AUSTRIA……
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:35 am
Too much reliance on the skulls and not enough variation imho
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:36 am
They look awsome!
I love you shell pink bass but
x
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:36 am
OMG, i love it!
seriously, just… awesome.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:37 am
Oohh They’re pretty awesome =D
They seem very different than your previous basses though Mark
Not a bad thing though xD
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:39 am
theyre both pretty cool some of the things in them are a little random like the cheeseburger one but still looks cool. godzilla one needs more background color imo
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:40 am
put some animations from the mark tom and travish show or the bunny or the smiley, make it your own!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:40 am
Hey mark !
Nice colors, great body for your own fender signature.
I think you should use some happy tree friends pics (www.happytreefriends.com). Its gonna b awesome.
What do you think?
Best regards,
Marcos – from Sao Paulo – Brazil
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:41 am
wow this looks awesome!!
i´m jalouse! i wanna have a bas like this too
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:41 am
those look awesome
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:41 am
Hi Mark!!!. I like the first one very much, it’s more shocking because of the colors and the drawings. I hope you put some more of this!.
Like always…Bringing the awesome
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:42 am
It’s so cute!!!! ^^
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:42 am
definetly like the purple one better
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:44 am
These are awesome! But hopefully the pick guards and everything don’t interfere with the art!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:44 am
WOWWW…it’s amazing….
i loved!!!!!!!!!
BRASILIAN KISSES!!!
:D
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:45 am
Loooooove it
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:46 am
i think they are awesome…i think you should send me one to test out though…
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:47 am
They look rad. Never seen a guitar like that either… Get matching plectrums and you’re onto a winner.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:47 am
I wanna buy one!!
Yes,they look so cool!! No not only cool…I can’t explain it!!….Okay AWESOME!!…;) I love the design!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:48 am
Sweet, I like the art style
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:48 am
Wow dude, those are legit! I can’t wait to see you guys, its seriously going to blow if the tix sell out on me!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:49 am
Looks amazing^^
I hope you come to germany =)
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:50 am
nice job, cant wait to see the finished article!! i remember the tour buses!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:51 am
Yeah they’re cool dude…but honestly I prefer the lettuce bass!
=D
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:51 am
these covers look nice but i think a bass with a special color like pink or mint is better
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:51 am
oohh they aree very beautifuul!
but I prefer the pink bass!:D
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:52 am
hey mark, they look awesome, but i don’t know, i’d rather see your old pink bass hitching the road with you
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:52 am
what…no unicorns??
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:54 am
hmm i dont know, i thik you should wait for more ideas, you rock man….
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:54 am
i prefer the pink and the plaid ones
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:55 am
it looks dope but a little girly
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:56 am
So cool!
But the first is better!
YEAH!
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:57 am
Mail me one, I need a closer look.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:58 am
more pink-more octopus
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:59 am
soooo friggin cool. it would be really cool to see the old blink bunny worked in somehow though
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:59 am
Hy Mark, first my english sucks! but I think pretty rad the new basses! It´s great.
Please, came to Brazil! Will be the bigest show ever! =)

April 2nd, 2009 at 9:00 am
they’re great
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:00 am
I think these look awesome, always been a fan of their artwork, they have a habit of just putting lots of little characters together and make it look brilliant
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:01 am
those are amazing and fabulous! i love tokidoki.
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:01 am
the secend ones awesome

April 2nd, 2009 at 9:01 am

aaron x
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:02 am
those are badass! USE THEM!
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:02 am
hey mark…why don’t you commission someone to design you an animal crossing bass? mr. resetti needs to hear your dulcet bass tones.
also…love your twitter. i’d love it more if you actually responded to my messages!
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:03 am
don’t be a fag
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:03 am

April 2nd, 2009 at 9:04 am

Germany loves you guys.
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:06 am
I really like the first one. It has a Takashi Murakami meets American Rock feel to it.
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:07 am
What, no pickguard on these?
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:08 am
hell yeah, those is kool as hell! the purple one’s the best though
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:09 am
those are fucking rad!
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:09 am
looking pretty fucking cool.
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:10 am
interesting
if i had to pick one it would be the second one…just because of the laser shooting monster
but i do like the purple on the first one
cant wait to see u holdin either of them on stage though
CANT WAIT!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:10 am
Not a big fan,but that’s just me.
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:11 am
i think they look good would you be putting this on your base for the tour
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:13 am
awwwww kawaiii
theyre awesome
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:14 am
Looks sick dude, esp the second one.
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:14 am

April 2nd, 2009 at 9:15 am
i kinda like it, looks pretty cool, it’s different
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:16 am
FUCKING COOL!!!! COME TO CHILE!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:16 am

April 2nd, 2009 at 9:17 am
Pretty neat! I like the second one! Love the Dinosaur in there!
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:18 am
she was excellent alone necessary of details
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:18 am
mmmm doughnuts. Very cool. Love tokidoki.
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:18 am
Awesome!!! Looks kinda like the +44 tour bus
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:19 am
They both rock! I would say that the top 1 is better atm if your wanting any feedback dude
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:20 am
go for the grey mark! OR a godzilla bass!!!! like prince’s shot “water” urs can shoot fire!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:20 am
i like the first one, purple one describe very well mark hoppus style.
Bye God <3
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:21 am
e melhor eu falar em brasileiro
esta otimo so precisa de alguns detalhes
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:21 am
hy!
i think the second one is better!! .. summer’s gonna be great!! =D
bb
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:22 am
Never saw anything like these but… I really love the second one!
Great MH!
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:23 am
Yeah Mark!
This is a great Prototype! Fuck Yeah!
I also want one of this
rerads from germany
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:23 am
omg thats the cutest, raddest thing ever! i love it
<3
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:24 am
I think they’re great. But I prefer the bottom one. I especially like the dinosaur :L
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:25 am
Wow these are pretty cool. I wouldn’t mind getting my hands on one of them myself.
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:25 am
awesome man! tokidoki kick ass!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:25 am
Wow these are pretty cool. I wouldn’t mind having one of these myself. Keep us posted with updates!
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:26 am
The first one is better. You should have a contest for us to design them for you. That would bring the awesome.
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:26 am
some of that pics are pretty cool but most of them are a bit to emo for mark .. for example the razor blad.. it doesnt fit to blink or mark i think.
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:27 am
i love these. they are amazing.
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:27 am
Those are sweet…do you really need Skelanimal skulls on ‘em though?
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:28 am
I think the background color of the top is cool, with the purple, but I like the design of the bottom one.. Although, pretty sick either way!
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:29 am
I dunno about it man. They’re okay at best. Less is more.
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:29 am
wooow…this looks so awesome..cant wait to see that bass
wish i had one of those already :]
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:30 am
i like the gray one
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:30 am
Awesome!! You need a nicely finished bass cause I miss the magenta and surf green fenders!! Are you still going to reverse the pickups for a blink sound?
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:31 am
Both look awesome, but I think I like the purble better…? Maybe. I dont know. Even thought I think the purple is more cluttered in a way, it’s fun to keep looking for the little details, but I guess that is also true with the grey one. I definitely like the purble better because there are more lighting bolts visible and less stars (ok, it’s only one, but still…).
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:31 am
thaats RAD
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:32 am
uH.. what’s your age again?
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:32 am
me likes them
only one question for you mark
where is the burrito “D i mean it is ur daily basis of food
should represent you
you represent the Burrito these days haha
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:33 am
i like them, but will u be playing ur normal fender basses?
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:34 am
i like the second one
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:34 am
they look sick but not what i wouldve expected on your basses. i like the people and i really like the black and white drawings, but the lil animated animals i could go without. still pretty sick tho
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:34 am
awesome !!!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:36 am
Honestly…raddest bass design short of something inlvolving lightsabers, death stars, and or ewoks…
keep the internets posted on the progress of this project.
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:38 am
tokidoki always rules, the guys have done an amazing job!
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:39 am
wow!
but is that two different prototypes, or front and back?
i cant tell
but anyway both of the pictures are damn sexy, cant wait to see the finished product. will be awesome, also will this be available as you new signature for the public to purchase or not?
But to be honest, i am still in love with you ‘electric pink’ bass, should be brought back to the the shops!
i still want it!
Also on you new bass you should totally put the word “BLINK” down the frets, would look amazing
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:42 am
I just though, you could even just put “182″ down the frets, or go for the normal, “BLINK182″
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:43 am
i’d rock the grey over the purple.
purple design seems like its more powerpuff girls going on than anything else
who knows…maybe its that green lizard that changes the vibe up over that asian chic lol
awesome designs either way tho
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:43 am
It’s cool but kind of random. I know you guys can come up with a better design. Something that combines old school and new school. It’s a little to over the top, you guys own this scene, keep it simple yet kickass. Maybe old school pink? eh eh.
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:44 am
hey mark! i think they look good but..
is that really your style? is that on any way related to the new blink album?
im sorry but i cant find the connection!
but if you like it, go ahead
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:44 am
Waaa amazing ! the first one rocks hard and the second too but a little bit too grey…^^
Anyway, you should send me one in France and i’ll tell you if it’s a good bass guitar or not……….no seriously, if you give me this bass, i’ll send you yoda’s testicles(he had three testicles) ……… THAT’S A GOOD DEAL !!! no ?
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:45 am
great !
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:46 am
I’m diggin the second one alot! What if you did a mix of purple and grey pinstripes behind the design though? That could look sweet.
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:46 am
nice
but i like second one more, i think it’s funnier
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:46 am
sweet love the grey one!
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:47 am
AWESOME DESIGNS!!!
I WANT THE 1ST ONE ON MY GUITAR D8
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:47 am
The purples cool, but I like the cartoons on the grey one better – naimly the awesome little Godzilla like dinosaur!
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:50 am
amazing =D
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:51 am
The First Looked Awesome
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:53 am
Wow they look great ! however I would make the background colour Hot Pink like the old one (the best one)
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:53 am
2
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:55 am
I like the drawings on the first and the background color of the second one. I think to should be combined and it would be perfect.
Sten.
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:56 am
they are pretty awesome
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:57 am
Mark i don’t know dude. I love your basses but this is to much i guess. Cool paintjob but not on a bass. But that’s only my opinion :p And i’m Dutch so what do i know right? I’m stoned all the time
Hope to see you soon in Holland!
Much love <3
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:58 am
hmm.. I like your old other basses better than this. This is kind’a childish. What does Tom think about this? can’t you use that white bass more often? I like that alot. With a black picboard
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:58 am
:O they are well cool =D
i like the grey one bestest (:
Love (; xo
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:59 am
I definitely like the top one better. :]
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:02 am
They’re cool, have they got any reference to you or is it just random? if so, maybe some blink related cartoons too?
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:02 am
Godzilla fa sho!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:03 am
AWESOME
I like the ideas, but I think they should add a drumkit, in order to do TRVS a favour XD. Just joking but, I mean a kind of snare drum would improve the whole thing.
The vinyls are rad. Background should be pink.
That’s just my opinion.
Greetings from Austria
Macbeth
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:04 am
You should leave a blink 182 logo on them! otherwise they are kick ass!
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:05 am
WAAAA AWESOME !!!!
the first one is just beautiful and the second one too but a little bit too grey^^
Can i have mine please ?? Send me one in France please and i’ll send you…..Yoda’s testicles! THAT’S A GOOD DEAL !!!!…..no?
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:06 am
rad!
the spiky hair guy on the first proto looks like sid vicious
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:07 am
this is amazing (:
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:08 am
Holy crap, as if your basses weren’t awesome enough already mark!
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:08 am
these designs are kickass!well..i really like the grey one better!
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:09 am
love the gray one!
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:09 am
not huge on this art, but if its your taste than why not… i prefer your distinguished single colors
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:10 am
right on
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:10 am
They are both pretty sweet, but that purple one owns harddcore. You need a gumdrop paradise version, with unicorns of course.
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:11 am
awesome, but those emokids suckd
more dinosaurs, dragon, stars etc. I love that little blue bird
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:13 am
WOW WOW are amazing!!! wow .. hei..i don’t see “Toilet Roll”!where is toilette roll?..(it is very nice so it can’t be missing)..(my english is horrible sorry)..
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:14 am
DOODER!! IVE GOT EVERY BASS OF YOURS, THIS IS SICK AS HELL!! I WISH I COULD GET AHOLD OF ONE OF THESE!! DEF STOKED ABOUT THIS!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:14 am
I guess u would be cool with the one with the purple background =)
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:15 am
Both really bad ass, you should have them take the Godzilla out of the gray one and replace it with the guy playing guitar since you play bass, but all in all really cool can’t wait to see the finish product.
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:16 am
These are amazing!!
-x-
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:19 am
I think they’re awesome!
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:22 am
Awesome, ive been waiting for tokidoki to do you a bass paint job. The second is my favourite, but they are both brilliant. I think the new blink smiley needs to be in there somewhere though!
Can’t wait for the new album and tour, You, Travis and Tom are the greatest!! \m/
Tom=D
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:24 am
there needs to be a Robot!
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:25 am
Awesome
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:28 am
haha they’re cool, i like the bottom one.
will blink be touring the uk in the near future? i know travis has a discomfort with flying.
x
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:29 am
Maybe you could stick to your original bass colors, you know, green and light pink and add the designs instead of chaging the background color also..
Greeting from Brazil, w8ing to see this very bass with my own eyes (:
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:30 am
both are really cool.
I really liked the gray one .
love you.
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:31 am
Grey one FTW
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:32 am
Both look awsome but the second one is the most awsome
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:32 am
Nice
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:32 am
it’s not cool.
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:33 am
the second one is so damn amazing !
i like the dinosaur plus it has a record on it that’s just awesome.
does it come in “mark hoppus signature” PINK ?
Bring the magic of the pink bass back !!
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:33 am
yeah…
the second design looks pretty cool…
…but I love your pink bass !!!
like take off your pants and jacket times !
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:34 am
that’s cool!!! <3 <3 <3
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:34 am
I love the second one!
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:34 am
Mark, this is Julio from madrid spain, we follow evey move you make, and we cant wait to know something about the tour, we are planing a big trip to follow u around the states with a van, but men we dont know anything! tell me a month, an area, west coast’?¿?¿ we have to say in our jobs that we are leaving, so pleaaase let me know something!! i wont tell anybody!!!
thanks!
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:38 am
EPIC WIN! they are actually so cool! i’d love my J-Bass to have body work like that!
does this mean that you’ll be releasing more Signature Basses only instead of u buying them in Surf-Green etc u can buy em with all that on em? that would be win, but i bet the price rockets up ;P aha
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:39 am
too japenese
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:40 am
YO
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:41 am
Pretty sweet!
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:42 am
Those are looking awesome! I LOVE tokidoki’s stuff. I vote you give them away after the tour to some lucky first commenter.
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:43 am
Honestly, no offense or anything, but they dont look too good right now. It hasoo much going on. You might wanna tone down the random anime characters.
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:44 am
They look Japanesy! If thats what you wanted, lol
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:45 am
OMG cream my jeans. Tokidoki AND blink182! I think I could die happy if I had one
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:45 am
…. =O
I’m just breathless now… hahaha
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:46 am
AMAZING!!!!!!! MARK THESE ARE PERFECT FOR YOU!!!! YOU RULE!!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:47 am
i like the grey one……but a purple bass would be pretty damn nice
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:48 am
both basses are looking really good! My favorite is the first one:)
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:49 am
they’re so cool and they will fit just fine on your bass. it would be cool if you put these on your bass amplifiers! cheers mark
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:50 am
I think that the purple is best for you Mark. But theyre both great.
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:51 am
I like it! It’s cool! I prefer the purple one! I think they could work a bit more on the background!
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:52 am
look pretty cool man, hopefully it’ll look good with tom’s guitar on stage
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:53 am
the purple one is epic!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:54 am
they’re neat but stick with lettuce
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:55 am
I love the second one, but they’re both really cool
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:56 am
uhm? YES!!!!!!!!! AWESOME!!!!!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:58 am
Yo mark this looks awsome! very unique, i like that rat who’s eating stake! ^^ Hope you guys will visit us here in sweden or atleast in scandinavia. looking forward to the upcoming summer! cheers! / johannes
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:58 am
i dont like them much… your pink bass with blink smile logo is the best
April 2nd, 2009 at 10:59 am
The bottom one is sick. I like the green dinosaur on the bottom left.
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:00 am
I approve Mr. Hoppus! They look pretty rad
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:01 am
Hi Mark! First picture looks better. Girl in left bottom associated with your songs. Good luck
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:01 am
the gray one was better but wont it be a tokidoki bass instead with that? The stars was cool but still ;O on your signature bass plz have a “signature” plate on the back so we that dont live in The US can get a signature from you even if its a “copy”
And plz have a teal or pink signature bass
GL mark
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:01 am
just put a blink logo in it and its gold
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:02 am
i like the second one
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:04 am
I’m not gonna lie Mark, I’m not really into any of these designs. I think you should go with a white bass and either the blink-182 smiley logo in like a gray-black-blue fade or a black bass with an image of that octopus in gray with angry pink eyes. All I know is that tokidoki stuff just isn’t the way to go.
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:07 am
super lame.
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:08 am
i think both of them are pretty rad dude
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:09 am
I like the second one better
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:09 am
Damn dude those look sick! I haven’t seen anybody else with donut… doughnut? UFO’s on their bass… or any instrument for that matter. Man, why’d they have to shorten doughnut? Donut just looks like a command of some sort. Don’tnut and donut. Hmmm… how many women have said that…
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:09 am
awesomee!!!!! i would like to have one of those basses, but first i want the surf green one
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:10 am
whoa! me likey the grey one!! no wait the other one… gaaah they both rock!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:11 am
pretty nice mark!
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:11 am
got to tell you mark, I’m not to found of it, it looks like something every other band would have, You need to have something no one has. make it spacey like star trek and star wars, UFO’s and some insane shit.
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:12 am
I’d like to see this on a bass
but you’re right it’s a bit rad but also a bit too strange ^^
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:12 am
I like em!
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:14 am
I think that the grey one is really awesome
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:15 am
Quite cool basses, I prefer the grey one. Love the paintings on it!
Great work from tokidoki congrats!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:15 am
Theyre really cool looking! I like the gray one! they both rock!
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:17 am
hey mark
that style looks awesome, really great
i wan´t to see some more of this!
i just bought your signature bass last month in blue. I really like it! it´s the best bass i´ve ever played, it´s so much fun to play!
Keep on rockin!
greetings from munich
PS: do you remember the unicorns on your gig with +44 here in munich?
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:17 am
hey mark, i’ve just had a look at those ideas, and wanted to tell you that.. I guess, you dont needthat comertial things, in my opinion, you gotta use ur old bass, the pink one. you guys dont need to show a new appearance cause what we want is nothing new, only the old greatest awesome Blink 182.
I wish u luck, peace
PD: please come to Argentina!
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:18 am
ahh you lucky thing.
tokidoki are amazing, i think your bass will be the most beautiful in the world lol
x
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:18 am
That’s totally sick dude! I like the top one better, it has more color; but the bottom one has a cool monster on it
How do you get such crazy awesome stuff?
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:19 am
Looks awesome
I need a new bass, I might have to see if I can get my hands on a Tokidoki one
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:20 am
also it seems that these basses don’t even need to use any pickguard, but i think that it’d look amazing with a white one
would fender sell these basses?
and also with the colors you used with plus 44 ?
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:21 am
i actually prefer your bass to just be the old pink
those designs look REALLY childish and cliche
like smtg you would see in miley friggen cyrus’ band
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:22 am
cool.
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:23 am
I love how it has the twisted-cute chacter thing going on. pure awesomness and unique for a bass. Not sure if I ive ever seen such elabrote cartoon drawings on a guitar like this befor.
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:24 am
I love the bass covers. Well I love anything you do
#1 fan here! i can prove it to you!!!!!!!! ask Chris Holmes about “blink-182 book”
Mark I’m on the last chapter in my book!
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:26 am
love the designs, i think they would look great as a body for your bass
personally, i like the one on top better, but that’s just me i don’t like grey^^
cheers form austria;)
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:27 am
nope…..keep it pink
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:28 am
Very Nuice!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:29 am
Those look fuckin sick Mark!
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:30 am
OMG! Please Marl,COME TO BRAZIL !!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:30 am
wow they look fucking awesome!!! you guys are gonna rock sp hard this summer I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE YOU!!! PLEASE COME TO SWEDEN!!
long live blink
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:30 am
sorry i mean SO*
lol
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:31 am
I think the second one looks sickest. Also, the new Blink shirts on loserkids.com look awesome as well.
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:34 am
uum i like the gray one better
but there is way too much on it..
a blink smiley would be great <3
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:35 am
top ones way better. needs more pink and the diamond dude is a little strange but i like it
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:35 am
preatty cool *-*
love it!
xx
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:35 am
Holy shit mark, these prototypes looks F… AMAZING.. they’re both great. I would probably go for the grey one:)
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:36 am
sweet, cant wait to see the FINLAND product
top ones best x
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:37 am
I like the dino with lasereyes and the pokemon eating a steak
But to be honest I’m not so thrilled about it.. I think its too flashy, even for YOU! But the purple background looks great with those yellow and blue lightningbolts.
Can’t wait to hear the new album
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:38 am
yeah, looks good =)
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:39 am
boooooo these suck, stick with the normal shit mark! no emo gay shit like this
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:39 am
Holy shit mark, these prototypes looks F… AMAZING.. they’re both great. I would probably go for the grey one:)
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:40 am
They look really great! I personally prefere the second one. But both are great!
Thanks to keep this blog up to date, it’s really fun!
Can’t wait to see you tour in Europe, more specificly Switzerland (^^)!
See ya
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:41 am
yeaah i think there amzazing =D. you just need to show them live in the Nethelands=D
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:42 am
I like the first one, but it looks like an “emo” bass, isn’t it ?
Your most amazing bass is the pink one forever !
Emilie A.
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:44 am
Great Mark :]]
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:45 am
Awesome work
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:45 am
I think they’re pretty awesome. The grey one is pretty nice, but the purple one maybe it needs to be color magenta. =) anywho rock on!
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:46 am
amazing. are they finland?
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:47 am
there looking pretty creative so far,
i would love to see the pink bass in tour again with blink though
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:51 am
both are insane,
But the second wins.
Oh god, look that angry monkey!
send one of these to Brazil.
good luck!
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:52 am
ehhh. they’re alright.
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:53 am
awesome. i like the silver one a bit more though. it woud way cooler if you put the cheeseburger on the silver one instead….cause that cheeseburger with flag pwns everything haha
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:54 am
1st one -def.winner
not sayin the 2nd one doesnt kick loads of asses but coooome on – anime diamond? yellow bolt? crazy anime mr. hoppus with freckles? yup the 1st one. oh and donut spaceship. sick
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:55 am
i also have a question. How come on twitter you refer to blink-182 by adding the # sign?
like you will say “#blink-182″ Why?
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:56 am
i like the second one best, the green dinosaur is cute xD
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:58 am
I Think Ur Bass Would Look Awesome On Stage Looking Like That =) I Love The Design And The Way It Looks. Soo Different From Anything U Guys Have Ever Done. This Is So U Mark. Super Punk Rock! Lol I Say Go 4 It! U Should Tell Tom To Have The Design On His Guitar & Travis On His Drums =) P.S. The Dancing Skeleton On The First Pic Is Awesome!! Hahaha -Lily
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:59 am
IT’S AMAZING MARK, YOU’RE NEW BASS *—–*
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:01 pm
they look pretty cool, except they SERIOUSLY deviate from the theme you guys have set in the past (simple custom instruments)
maybe a pink base coat or light blue would be better than purple and grey.
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:01 pm
the purple is entirely too much, which is funny when you said that its the low use of color would be on the tour of octopus, everyone thought it would be pink. I only say purple and hit him: D
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:02 pm
Needs more robots. Love the razorblade guy though.
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:04 pm
So cool! I want!
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:04 pm
OMG SUPER RAD
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:05 pm
i absolutely love the second one! XD
they’re awesome.
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:07 pm
I love it!! that looks so AMAZING! i think it’s a keeper!
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:09 pm
They look rad, but lettuce and ur other sig colours do it for me more
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:09 pm
Well, I think it’s a little bit overloaded, but in the end it depends on what you want.the lower one is better in my opinion, I like the vinyl record and the dinosaur;) the upper is too…purple?
hey, mark, if you read this, check this vid : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGlrobvb-ao
Great Scott! haha, man I love this movie.
Greets from Germany
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:13 pm
ahhh so cool mark, cant wait for the tours, i gotta get me one of those belt buckles too
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:13 pm
Mark,
going to be completely honest with you, I don’t really like the design ideas. All you need is your pink bass! It is the greatest bass guitar ever, don’t change.
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:14 pm
Hey mark!
Love the designs, the wee green dinosaur is awesome. Keep up the good work, and please come back to Dublin, I was at the last blink concert ever at The Point, loved ur wee drum solo at the end!! Hero
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:15 pm
pretty cool
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:16 pm
not gonna lie…im diggin’ the purple one.
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:17 pm
seriously…i think they’re not for you…this tipe of pictures aren’t good enought for blink-182’s bass player!!!!
go mark go!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:17 pm
love the cool designs! i wish you would have a hot pink bass available for the rest of us
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:18 pm
The grey one is cool, the purple one is too colorful imo
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:20 pm
Reminds me of the tom mark and travis show
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:21 pm
The purple one is awesome!
Btw you rule Mark!
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:23 pm
Keep It CLASSY!!!!!!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:24 pm
Really digging the grey model. The giant reptile with laser eyes is priceless.
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:26 pm
i like the first one because it has a cheeseburger on it and didnt you have a dog named cheeseburger? i love lettuce, and the pink bass though. wish i had a mark hoppus bass, but im broke. hey as long as its just a new pick guard i think its cool
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:28 pm
the bottom one is cool as shit
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:28 pm
HEY MARK!

LOVED IT!
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:28 pm

April 2nd, 2009 at 12:31 pm
lmao those are awesome i would want those on my bass FIRST COMMENT
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:34 pm
WOW!those are really kool!
i think i like the gray one better…but i like the purples colors.Ether way there BOTH good!
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:34 pm
Hi!
Woah, the prototypes are amazing!
I love the second one.
Hope you’ll be great.
Ciao
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:38 pm
it’s very good!:)
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:41 pm
Any idea on pricing? I’ve been looking for a new bass to replace my old Squier Affinity P. These look pretty sick
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:45 pm
Not gonna lie, makes me think of Power Puff Girls. . . whether or not thats what your going for its alright.
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:47 pm
Hey dude these designs are awesome but it’s missing the signature florescent pink!!
I’m loving the demon hamburger in the first one.

April 2nd, 2009 at 12:49 pm
Hey mark
there awesome as
i think there gnarly
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:53 pm
Rad.
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:00 pm
Cool I like the first one better the second one has to much goin on you need something that you can tell what it is when people see you on stage. Sweet designs though and definitely different.
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:02 pm
WHOA MARK! THOSE ARE SO PIMPED!!! ARE THEY 4 THE PINK BASS??? I LIKE THE PINK BASS JUST THE WAY IT IS! LOL BUT THOSE ARE REALLY PIMPED!!!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:03 pm
I’m totally digging both of these. I think I’m leaning toward the purple one more. But either way, they look awesome!
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:06 pm
Wow that looks sick Mark! Keep bringin the awsome man! Can’t wait for the upcoming blink tours!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:08 pm
Heyyaa mark! how u doing?? hey those pickguards are amazing! with punk, jewelry, bones and all those colors make a nice combination. I hope blink 182 being nice and writing new songs for the upcoming album!! Hey mark please post the tours on your wall when u can, Chile is a nice option to make a concert.
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:09 pm
Busy customizations.
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:10 pm
Those are awesome!
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:12 pm
whooooo very nice mark !! it willl be so cool if you play with this on ur bass
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:13 pm
The purple guitar brings to mind the intro to ’saved by the bell’. I’m just talking the blue and yellow zig zagging lines and color scheme. But that skullburger in the middle pulls the piece together….in a fast food sort of way. The design of the bottom one is cool.
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:14 pm
i like the gray best… but i think you should play lettuce on stage… seriously… id pay a grand just to touch it -.-
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:15 pm
those are rad
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:15 pm
those are sickkkk
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:17 pm
i like it, but to be honest i prefer the last one.
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:19 pm
Sick I’m the first comment!
I’m really digging the second one with the diamond and the dinosaur.
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:19 pm
Cool, but not my style. Im more fond of the current signature guitar.
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:19 pm
i prefer your sea foam green one, but these could be cool
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:20 pm
I’m liking it, Mark!
Whoever made it, well done.
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:22 pm
THOSE
ARE
AWESOME
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:27 pm
awww man the blue bass design is sweet, im all over it!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:30 pm
j’aime trop !!!! I LoVe It !!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:31 pm
Yeah Mark, they look well cool, the top one is the better of the two, but the bottom one is still pretty sweet, best see these on tour in the UK!!! (hint hint!)
Christof
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:33 pm
They are great
only the background color gray isn’t so well
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:35 pm
NICE. excited for the tour.
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:35 pm
the second one is very very cool…i play the bass too…i wanto to play your fender
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:37 pm
omg.
rad.
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:38 pm
i think these designs are right swanky and cool ;D if i had to pick, i think i’d go for the grey one, unless the burgar on the purple was a veggie burgar then i wouldnt be fussed ;D (im vegetarian haha)
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:39 pm
Very demolition man. Can’t work out if it’s too cool or just painful on the eyes
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:44 pm
Purple guitar reminds me of ‘SAVED BY THE BELL’ Maybe because it was on at 5:30 this morning while i was eating cereal, I don’t know. but the color scheme and everything is two thumbs down on the purple one. in my mind. Gray one looks nice for sure.
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:45 pm
it’ll be sweet no matter what you play but they look bad ass
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:49 pm
freaking tight!!!!!!! i like the purple one
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:53 pm
i would REALLY love to see you playing your pink bass here in Braziil.
but those are cool too. =]
April 2nd, 2009 at 1:59 pm
I prefer the grey one !!
can’t wait your next record bro’
April 2nd, 2009 at 2:02 pm
Those are awesome! The grey one with the dinosaur is my fav.
April 2nd, 2009 at 2:16 pm
Tokidoki?
I like the first, but the dinosaur on the second is pretty rad.
April 2nd, 2009 at 2:20 pm
wow they look amazing!:D
cant forget the old pink bass tho
April 2nd, 2009 at 2:47 pm
look good, but need the octopus.
April 2nd, 2009 at 2:49 pm
i like your pink one
((( . but the gray one is cool too. but i still liek the pink one.
April 2nd, 2009 at 3:00 pm
luvin the donut. just change the background color to pink and it’ll be all good
HURRY UP & COME 2 SAN DIEGO ALREADY!
April 2nd, 2009 at 3:04 pm
Here are my thoughts. I think the first one is pretty cool.
The second one has too many black stars on it, and I feel like the gray looks kinda bad for it. There should be a little pink (maybe like the big pink star on the first one) and maybe try other colors for the background. Maybe some different tokidoki characters on it, like Sandy or Moofia characters. Needs green and pink somewhere.
April 2nd, 2009 at 3:08 pm
They are FUCKING SAVAGE!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 3:10 pm
i like the one on the bottom. i love hearing about the upcoming blink tour. you must come to ohio! im so excited to see u all 3 together on stage again!! im so happy that blink is back, u made my year.
April 2nd, 2009 at 3:10 pm
its ok……..i mean it just like i dunno……….but listen you know that octupus prototype that shit would be really cool. but yea………
April 2nd, 2009 at 3:28 pm
you should use the 1st design, i love TokiDoki
April 2nd, 2009 at 3:42 pm
these look so nice..
but in fact..
these don’t look me like “mark”..
maybe we can see a new mark stile.. ^^
PP
in every way.. you kick ass man..
April 2nd, 2009 at 3:58 pm
Mark, the prototypes are awesome! Please come to Brazil, and if you come to Fortaleza, would be great, the best thing ever.
April 2nd, 2009 at 4:00 pm
second one for the win =)
April 2nd, 2009 at 4:06 pm
dude you’re pink bass already kick ass and lettucce what about him lol it will be so cool to see those instruments again on stage But i like the grey one
Greetings From Mexico
April 2nd, 2009 at 4:07 pm
all mark needs is his green bass and the pink one…. that´s enough
solid color are better.
April 2nd, 2009 at 4:09 pm
all you need is your pink bass and the green one tha´t enough…
come to MEXICO CITY!!!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 4:32 pm
HORRIBLE, that’s too emo manga style and too much complicated and thats not for blink !!
you should keep a simple flat coloured bass Mark, you’re so much better with it !!
love
April 2nd, 2009 at 4:35 pm
this sucks, honestly, unless u like anime porn mark?
ps why dont u get intouch with your fans more like chatroom once month or somthing
April 2nd, 2009 at 4:37 pm
that’s ok for a 14 year-old emo kid, but not for you mark, BLINK IS NOT A EMO BAND !!
April 2nd, 2009 at 4:42 pm
The second one is sweeeet. I love it.
April 2nd, 2009 at 4:46 pm
i like the second one most , but it will be amazing that instead of the gray background color would be brown(: that would’d look amazing.
cant wait to see you play in MEXICO!
April 2nd, 2009 at 4:49 pm
YEAH! A CHIBI SID VICIOUS!!! DEFINETELY RAD!!!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 5:02 pm
hey. im sorry but onnest. they are nothing compared with ur ussual basses, those are only promotional style of those okidoky. i think that ur personal old basses have very much more style than this actual in the wave designs that u published, i dont like them, but mabye one of them could be ur future bass, so… whatever, i wanna see u at stage, i dont care about the bass ahahaha, see u in argentina no? bye!
April 2nd, 2009 at 5:05 pm
these aren’t good. classic woodgrain is nice.
x
April 2nd, 2009 at 5:06 pm
sometimes, when we try to make things rich…we do the oposite, we make them poor. i think thats the problem with those designs. a lot of people could do better things, a lot of artist would like to make a disign for u i think, starting with me hahaha, so try to make them get a 10, not a 5. thanks for reading
April 2nd, 2009 at 5:15 pm
Can’t say I like these, Mark! Gotta be honest with ya but they look like they should be on Avril Lavigne’s bass or someone of her nature, ya know? Too childish looking to me.
April 2nd, 2009 at 5:25 pm
i like the second one it has a dinosaur!! and stuff
April 2nd, 2009 at 5:31 pm
i love the hamburguer!!!!
but the little godzilla is nice too!!
the purple it’s contrasting more! but… hey you’re mark hoppus, why you don’t put one picture of you in manga stile?? maybe saying the phrase of star wars…
April 2nd, 2009 at 5:42 pm
the pink one def looks cool. the bottom one reminds me of power puff girls. is that bad?
April 2nd, 2009 at 5:46 pm
i like the first one. i mean, the second one’s sick too but it just lacks the big slab of meat that the first has.
April 2nd, 2009 at 5:47 pm
i love them they look awesome its really random
April 2nd, 2009 at 6:08 pm
what about the pickguard?
April 2nd, 2009 at 6:13 pm
Mark this is greaaaaaaat
:D
April 2nd, 2009 at 6:17 pm
I they are so PUNKROCK and stylish!
April 2nd, 2009 at 6:18 pm
oo those look rad! :]
April 2nd, 2009 at 6:31 pm
i like everything but the faces. i hate the faces.
April 2nd, 2009 at 6:40 pm
the purple one! so tokidoki.. and you’ll look great with that color
April 2nd, 2009 at 6:41 pm
nice … but a bit too much skull on the first design, variations would be nice …
April 2nd, 2009 at 6:43 pm
Sorry mark but I think you should stick with the pink bass, these look kind of gay.
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:06 pm
Mark! Keep The Pink Bass!!!!!!!!!!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:11 pm
Hey Mark I think both of them look awesome but I do really like the purple one
I can’t wait to see some previews of things you guys are working on.
Also Do you know if you guys will be making any Recording studio videos like the last album ?
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:12 pm

April 2nd, 2009 at 7:15 pm
Markus…. Im not FEELIN THIS
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:24 pm
I love the 2nd one man, so cool
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:40 pm
dude dont use those theyre pretty lame. do a cool color instead
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:42 pm
they are good but there’s something missing…… don’t know what it is, they’re cool though.
I’m a graphic designer/ animator / cartoonist, I could do you some prototypes for free if you want, just mail me. see ya!
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:52 pm
It’s cute for something that looks Anime.
April 2nd, 2009 at 7:59 pm
I like that one, but i´d rather de pink one, you´re so awesome I can´t wait for your new album, I hope it´s like enema or dude ranch =0)
Peace and i hope i can see you again in this tour
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:34 pm
I think I like the second one the most.
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:15 pm
sorry man, i hate them. i love blink with everything i got but these arwnt blink, if the powerpuff girls played bass they’d have something like this. stick wit your roots bro, these are too asian.

April 2nd, 2009 at 11:13 pm
Use the bass you use in this video.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=az15tzUoTlQ
April 2nd, 2009 at 11:35 pm
tell them you want a more brilliant background color…
grey and blue are no fun
April 3rd, 2009 at 12:42 am
I like the motives but they could be a little bit more colourfull! S they stay in mind! ANd when do you publish your tourdates?? Please come to Germany!!!
April 3rd, 2009 at 12:44 am
There pretty rad bring the pink bass also and the plaid one too those were really awesome.
April 3rd, 2009 at 1:20 am
You should ask if they could do drawings of the three of you maybe with Blink logo in that style to…
April 3rd, 2009 at 1:31 am
I prefer the first one
April 3rd, 2009 at 1:38 am
I like them both! but id have to say the second one is just the little bit better…
make the second one have a pink background and itd be sweet xD
April 3rd, 2009 at 1:53 am

April 3rd, 2009 at 2:16 am

April 3rd, 2009 at 2:20 am
OMG those look amazing!!
April 3rd, 2009 at 2:57 am
Ah sweet
I love the dinosaur one. Well, ’cause he shoots lazer beams out his eyes,
I hope i can afford the next bass
April 3rd, 2009 at 3:00 am
what about a vacuum cleaner on the purple one
that girl looks awesome
April 3rd, 2009 at 3:03 am
what happened to good old skate stickers and duct tape?
April 3rd, 2009 at 3:16 am
Man, you’re lucky to have good friends at tokidoki to make you these awesome guitar prototypes, i hope one of them will see the light as a finished custom bass. Id love to have my bass customed ltokidoki style.
Lets see more tokidoki on the next Blink album!
Grtz, and good luck on the next album, can’t wait to hear it!
April 3rd, 2009 at 3:29 am
Nice. second one rocks
. But your pink bass guitar is the best one ever^^.
.
And what about your new album? Any news? We’re waiting for your new songs, here in Poland
April 3rd, 2009 at 3:48 am
I don’t really like them but if you like them…

April 3rd, 2009 at 5:05 am

April 3rd, 2009 at 5:53 am
They’re very loud looking, very chaotic. Surprised one of them is not star Wars infested!
I do like the bottom one with the green dinosaur though!
April 3rd, 2009 at 6:07 am
Brillant!
April 3rd, 2009 at 6:15 am
Mark, they look cool, but will the pick guard cover the art, or are you going to be using new basses without the guards? That would be pretty cool!
April 3rd, 2009 at 6:16 am
??,??????!!!!!
? ?? BELORUSIA
April 3rd, 2009 at 6:17 am
?????? ???!
April 3rd, 2009 at 6:29 am
both are nice ;D
but maybe the first is cooler
xoxo
April 3rd, 2009 at 6:57 am
Hi, does anyone know if/where i can get the 3 new Blink shirts? i don’t have a creditcard so i can’t order them on the Blink site
April 3rd, 2009 at 6:58 am
I like the gray one more!
April 3rd, 2009 at 7:32 am
oh, i don’t really like them, they look like some emo kid guitars.
April 3rd, 2009 at 7:37 am
I think in short as much as i like purple this design is for the ladies…. also it’s a little confusing hard to pull out individual elements within the design. The grey design works better with the different elements, although apart from having lots of sweet characters. I’m not sure what represents you or Blink… But I didn’t hear your brief…. P.S Good to hear you guys are one again.
April 3rd, 2009 at 7:53 am
AWESOME !!
the second one’s better !
April 3rd, 2009 at 7:53 am
stop being a sell out and just play music
April 3rd, 2009 at 8:06 am
put a white background color in the second one!
April 3rd, 2009 at 8:19 am
awesome!!!
April 3rd, 2009 at 8:39 am
HEY MARK. I DIDN’T LIKE IT. True, i hate these paint models for your bass…. I HATED
April 3rd, 2009 at 8:59 am

April 3rd, 2009 at 1:44 pm

it’s gonna be SO cool.
April 3rd, 2009 at 1:45 pm
sorry but i don’t like
pink finland bass is the best !
April 3rd, 2009 at 1:50 pm
yeah, it looks a little bit emo, but i really liked it.
just add more color to the second one,
everyone is gonna dig it ;D
April 3rd, 2009 at 1:55 pm
Im not gonna lie……i really do not like either one of them at all
use the pink one, its way better!
April 3rd, 2009 at 1:59 pm
seriously these are super lame. you’ve lived in LA for too long. also, stop being BFFs with pete wentz. he’s a fucking tool.
April 3rd, 2009 at 2:08 pm
the second is the best .. use that please!!
April 3rd, 2009 at 3:22 pm
the two are soooo cute, but I prefer the second …
because of the small green monster that has laser
*______*
-pleease come too Brazil (: <3 BLINK182;

April 3rd, 2009 at 4:36 pm
should def be pink mark.
but youre so asian its cute. <3
April 3rd, 2009 at 4:42 pm
My own opinions of the design aside, wouldnt half of it be covered up by pickguard? And besides, even if you went without a pickguard, there’d still be chunks taken out of the design by pickups and knob. Just something to think about.
April 3rd, 2009 at 4:47 pm
I’d rather see the purple on shining on brazilian stages.
April 3rd, 2009 at 4:47 pm
the purple one*
April 3rd, 2009 at 4:49 pm
Awesome!!
I prefer the first one.
April 3rd, 2009 at 6:37 pm
the purple is more you! or stay in your pink bass!
April 3rd, 2009 at 7:24 pm
sorry man, i hate them. i love blink with everything i got but these arwnt blink, if the powerpuff girls played bass they’d have something like this. stick wit your roots bro, these are too asian.
April 3rd, 2009 at 8:17 pm
oh my god…I can’t to talk, as it’s very good, it’s simple perfect!very perfect!
April 3rd, 2009 at 8:34 pm
I like the second one better.
but they’re both cool (:
April 3rd, 2009 at 10:19 pm
Hey Marrkkooo (POLO!).
hah that makes me laugh every time.
Anyway, I like the bottom picture better than the top because it doesn’t include a creepy teddy bear grimlin eating a steak.
AKA. PLEASE USE THE GREY
Also, my friends John SHHAEEFFERRRR and Richardo and I would love it if you could hook us up with some sweet reserved tickets to your summer tour.

i’m not really too into either of them. however, i really like that hamburger guy. he’s cute. you should definetly have one of those on your bass. these kind of remind me of the artwork on your +44 tour bus for the honda civic tour…or am i remembering it wrong?
April 4th, 2009 at 3:16 am
the second one is better!
but i love the pink bass!!!you must keep that!
April 4th, 2009 at 4:10 am
hey there…
i like better the bottom one, with the dinosaure…(it’s a dinosaur, right?…)
take care…
April 4th, 2009 at 4:16 am
SICK!!! i like the second one the most
April 4th, 2009 at 4:44 am
I like the gray one, is better for me, but the other is cool too!!!!! maybe you have to paint to basses with it, but… and your pink bass!!!!!!!!!!???????
April 4th, 2009 at 7:50 am
i don’t like them.
April 4th, 2009 at 8:53 am
USE THE PINK ONE BUT JUST SLAP STICKERS ALL OVA IT THOSE LOOK TOO ASIAN…..MABY YOU COULD USE THEM ON YOUR TOUR THROUGH ASIA I DO LIKE THE DINOSUAR THOUGH
April 4th, 2009 at 9:35 am
i dislike…but i think that purple it’s fantastic!
April 4th, 2009 at 10:00 am
Mark dude. You gotta keep posting stuff like this on here, it would be super awesome to help you create your next Fender Jazz Sig. Hope you come back to the UK soon, miss you man.
Bring lettuce with you =).
May the force be with you Mark.

Mark, these look pretty awesome but I’m not sure if I dig the razor blade looking thing and the diamonds? Some of it seems repetative maybe? I like busy, but more diversity would be cool… I’d like to see the smiley featured!
… BUT…. no matter what, Blink is back and that’s really all that matters!
Can’t wait for summer!
April 4th, 2009 at 1:20 pm
mark those suck they’re too dang emo!!

<3
i think pretty much EVERYBODY wants the pink bass back!!
but whatever makes you happy
as long as you’re back and playing with what you like and playing it with blink, i’m okay
I LOVE YOU
April 4th, 2009 at 2:08 pm
people are saying you’re pink bass from blink 182/+44 was best…
…i agree to a degree…
i do like that bass, but i also want to see you with another bass…so maybe….(my opinion).
use a toki doki bass AND your pink one too? like, alternate.
and i love the grey one, but i like the purple’s color, its more you, its more punk, its more blink 182.
April 4th, 2009 at 4:39 pm
coooooooool
April 4th, 2009 at 4:43 pm
omg now that I read the news
cooooooooooooooooool

did not like much of the meat that it
more that does not bad
cooooooooool
is the most beautiful design of low I have seen
* thinking to see you here playing with it .*
sorry, I think I empolguei a little, maybe a lot.
April 4th, 2009 at 5:54 pm
def. the dinosaur
April 4th, 2009 at 6:07 pm
Mark they’re awesome!!!!!!!!
I liked more the second one, but I think that instead of being gray, it could be purple, or maybe pink!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The dinosaur is the best!!!!!!!!!!
Actually, you’re the best!!!!!!!!
love you mark
take care
April 4th, 2009 at 6:48 pm
Wooow I like the first one, I saw that art work on a brazilian magazine Zupi, heey I hope that Blink will come to Brazil
I?Blink 182
April 4th, 2009 at 10:06 pm
you should do one with a red background.. that would be bananas
April 4th, 2009 at 10:11 pm
._. mark ;
I’m so stupid, I never thought to leave a comment: s I always wanted to talk about things you never knew how and now I know, I think I’m getting smarter

April 4th, 2009 at 10:16 pm
I do not care if you never actually read this are more than 500 comments, I think I read, then what will I do? many so I will call your attention, I really need to know to speak any thing. I have waited long to see you here in Brazil with the blink, but the clock is ticking and now that blink 182 is back my expectations are on the moon, you could realize the dream of a poor child? 8D
take care
April 5th, 2009 at 2:43 am
i love them both!
it would be hard to choose a favourite.
you met my friend bryce whilst in sydney at the vmaa’s.
im incredibly jealous….
April 5th, 2009 at 3:30 am
mark, they are both suck… look cheap and retarded.. honestly
April 5th, 2009 at 4:48 am
does this really suit the blink style? ummm i cant make up my mind.
April 5th, 2009 at 5:52 am
you should put the grey ones design with the purple background (:
iwantoneiwantoneiwantone
April 5th, 2009 at 9:05 am
i like the hamburger
April 5th, 2009 at 11:14 am
I like the purple one, but seems a bit crowded? rabbits are important.
April 5th, 2009 at 12:37 pm
woow nice bass
please choose SPAIN on your summer tour
thaanks
April 5th, 2009 at 12:57 pm
i think its too crowded….
it would probably be you and the ones upstage that will notice how cool it is. Not the public though.
i like the 2nd one (dinosaur one).
Go for something simpler?
April 5th, 2009 at 12:58 pm
the pink one is the best you should use that one when you come to cardiff
April 5th, 2009 at 12:59 pm
Just go for something your style.
April 5th, 2009 at 1:14 pm
Awesome designs mark, second one is great.
April 5th, 2009 at 1:19 pm
NICE!!:DD
put a huge blink sign in bright colors dead center!
that’ll be sick!
I already loce your basses!
I’d suck dick for the white custom its my dream bass(:

April 5th, 2009 at 1:21 pm
i dont like how they say tokidoki on them, that’s dumb. some of the pictures are cool though
April 5th, 2009 at 2:05 pm
PLEASE NO
April 5th, 2009 at 2:57 pm
Yo dude…I CANT WAIT FOR BLINK TO TOUR AGAIN!!!!! Haha I started enjoying blink from when i was in eighth grade, unfortunately you guys went on hiatus by the time i was a sophmore so i never got to see ya live. but now the dream is a reality, you guys gotta come by Arizona and Rock it Blink style!!!!!
April 5th, 2009 at 4:39 pm
I like, but i think to much emo to blink 182.
April 5th, 2009 at 4:42 pm
Brother,
these look like they are made for 12 year old scene kids.
Why don’t you stick with the classic look of your Fender P and Jazz bass and tell the kids to do the same.
April 5th, 2009 at 6:09 pm
Mark.. your awesome But i am more awesome. and i cum on your mums face.. Twice
let me buy your orange fender jazz i want one rate bad but no 1 sells them and i dont want a cheap mexican
April 5th, 2009 at 7:16 pm
i like the bottom one better
April 6th, 2009 at 12:01 am
the guy with the spiked hair looks like trvs from enema
should have more of a goku haircut haha
you should get a dragonball figure made of yourself
or something
April 6th, 2009 at 6:36 am
They look amazing – I think I want the wall of my lounge decorated just like it
)
April 6th, 2009 at 8:49 am
Oh my God they’re both cool!
You rock Man, you got a wonderful style!
April 6th, 2009 at 9:30 am
More Prototypes soon?
April 6th, 2009 at 9:32 am
And also, there’s a lot of talk about your hot pink one on here but didn’t you give it ti some kid he’s on youtube playing it?
April 6th, 2009 at 10:30 am
The purple one is awesome!
April 6th, 2009 at 10:33 am
I’ve not gone through many of the other responses so I dunno if anyone agrees with me when I say they’re good graphics, for a t-Shirt or a hoodie, but not for a guitar body.
I think solid colors always look best, get your bass done in like neon pink, that glows in the dark, that would be awesome…
Or even better!
April 6th, 2009 at 10:34 am
OMG this just so Rawr. xD
If you had the bass like that, Im goign to steal it from you^^
While you playing a show!
x
April 6th, 2009 at 3:52 pm
Hy Mark! How are you?
I’m a brazilian fan. I love blink since 2000. I play bass too. I started it when i listen to you playing. I think this full of information Choose only one picture. To me, the dinossaur look better. Please send me an e-mail! I missed blink 182 and I’m anxious to listen the news music. I pretend that the news music listen like enema of the state and take of your pants. Please don’t write sad musics!
Bye. Good Lock. And going to Brasil!
April 6th, 2009 at 4:00 pm
pink one is best
April 6th, 2009 at 4:00 pm
bring back the pink one mark
April 6th, 2009 at 5:11 pm
Dude those are freakin badass!
April 6th, 2009 at 5:49 pm
The second is the most beautiful, but if you trade the gray from the second for the purple of the first, i think it will be great.
April 6th, 2009 at 5:51 pm
hmm… not really lol. Stick with your old classic Pink Fender Bass
Peace dude !
April 6th, 2009 at 6:21 pm
i think you should use lettuce’s(your bass) color as a basis for the design
but it looks sick
April 6th, 2009 at 9:54 pm
I think it’s not a good idea…
=P
April 7th, 2009 at 1:16 am
They both look very cool! I like thise japanese comic style! Maybe you can get all 3 of you as comic figures on the bass (like in “The Mark, Tom and Travis Show”)
The violett one is my fav.
April 7th, 2009 at 1:24 am
dude that’s so badass u got skelanimals i think the only other thing that u could do is have 1 with an all invader zim theme like every1 from the tv show. well best wishes and i cant wait till the tour starts
April 7th, 2009 at 3:59 am
pretty rad
but why dont think abt puttin some blink182 things on
April 7th, 2009 at 5:44 am
I like the 1st one better..
April 7th, 2009 at 7:14 am
too crowded..
April 7th, 2009 at 8:30 am
Yeah it’s a little to emo for you mark. I think you should stick to the pink bass.
April 7th, 2009 at 10:00 am
I think they are really unique and cool. i like the second one better, much better.
April 7th, 2009 at 10:21 am
You are so cool.(PLease come to Athens to do a concert.I am waiting for you!)
April 7th, 2009 at 10:31 am
Please come to Greece!!!!We love you!
April 7th, 2009 at 11:12 am
hello there !!!!!!!! violet is good, I would like to eat this very delicious
April 7th, 2009 at 1:03 pm
The dino one! but put the hamburger dude on it!
April 7th, 2009 at 2:35 pm
to tell the truth i dont like them
you need to bring back the pink and surf green basses.
and the blue, and the orange
they both look like they’re too flashy and waaaayyyyy too emo for blink-182
April 7th, 2009 at 2:53 pm
okay. i just saw the razor blade on the gray one.
and i hate it even more
im sorry but you seriously need to stick with the classic solid color basses
April 7th, 2009 at 4:34 pm
I like the bottem one better.
April 7th, 2009 at 8:01 pm
they’re a little cluttered but the purple would look badass on your bass.
April 7th, 2009 at 10:03 pm
I liked the background color of the first better, but the drawnings of the bottom one are more awesome!
April 8th, 2009 at 3:55 am
I liked the second. it’s beautifull ans more amazing =D!
April 8th, 2009 at 7:05 am
You guys should try some manga stuff
April 8th, 2009 at 8:49 am
Good Designs but as some other people had said its bit chinese looking and bit too emo looking -its not really Blink style i personally think, they can be better! But whaever you choose will be awsome!
April 8th, 2009 at 2:19 pm
they both look great =)
April 9th, 2009 at 2:20 pm
hi mark

well,i play bass too and i like the colors from your first prototype but it are to many pictures and thinks on the bassbody.it looks like a emobass -.- you’re a punk-rocker,not a emo-rocker.and you’re our favourite bassist
my idea for you.take your old pink bass(i love them)and brush the pickguard turquoise.and take a maple fingerboard.that’s the hit!!!
i think my prototype/design is a nice combi between ”enema of the state“times and the new “blink 182“befour hiatus times.
your bass style was always the best.please change it.
sry for my bad englisch.i’m from germany
!!!!sommer 2009!!!!!
April 9th, 2009 at 2:48 pm
If your gonna go with the cartoon look, aleast make it theme’d to the Mark, Tom and Travis show. With the Punk Rock Bunny, Aliens, Banana man, Space Pods, and a title somewhere that says Crappy Punk Rock since 1994 or whenever. Now that whould be sick. Than you chould add logos from each album on your frets. Now that whould be the raddest signature ever made. I’d buy it at any price as long as you make It all American this time around please. Conister my iedas!
April 9th, 2009 at 5:10 pm
well…in my opinion the purple model is more like you…i mean
…although its not really mark hoppus style
is funny and happy like you
well….is my personally opinion but i really like the purple!
thanks so much for the return of blink. me my boyfriend and my lil bro are exited!!!!
greatings!
April 9th, 2009 at 11:44 pm
I personally think its a bit much. Kind of overdone you know? Like a scene gang got ahold of it. Mabye if you just have one pattern like the skull star pattern. But thats just me. Ive always been more fond of solid color on my basses aside from slapping some stickers on. Plus simplicity always seemed to fit your bass very well indeed. In my honest opinion Im not fond of either of them really. Though I love your plaid one lol. If youd like a suggestion, make one of your basses tye-dye lol. Thatd be pretty funky.
April 10th, 2009 at 7:06 am
I just loved it but I prefer the purple one! I1m from Brazil, when will you come here?
Kisses you are the best!!
April 10th, 2009 at 7:20 am
2nd one would look way cooler with the purple background…
April 10th, 2009 at 7:56 am
the second one, definitely
April 10th, 2009 at 12:14 pm
loving the second one
April 10th, 2009 at 9:47 pm
Nooo Men.. to emo.
Please dont use that prototypes.
April 11th, 2009 at 2:37 am
totally awesome i want one lol, really love the first one =]
April 11th, 2009 at 2:38 am

totally awesome idea
April 11th, 2009 at 7:23 pm
nah man, kinda gay
April 11th, 2009 at 7:25 pm
i do however like the dancing skeleton
April 12th, 2009 at 8:40 pm
Love the one with the dinosaur!!!!
April 12th, 2009 at 10:21 pm
They’re both cute! I like the purple one but I like the green angry dino from the 2nd prototype to be added to the first one.
Tokidoki is just the coolest! Good luck! I’ll be waiting to see Simone’s end product!
April 13th, 2009 at 9:43 am
too many drawings! But there are some cool colors. You could make a purple and yellow bass, like,.. i dunno, checker pattern in yellow and purple, that’d be rad. Otherwise, you could also go for a big mickey mouse or smth like that. Try to collaborate with Disney if you can!
So anyway, of those too tokidoki, i prefer the purple one.
April 13th, 2009 at 10:22 pm
fucken sick dude
defintely blink i’ll tellyou that
April 16th, 2009 at 4:38 am
They are awesome! I think the first one stands out more than the other, more badass! <3
April 17th, 2009 at 7:07 am
damn ! looks amazing. want it too *.*
April 17th, 2009 at 7:55 am
I know a lot of people have already said this but the grey one with green background would be better I think… also… too ASIAN? WTF!? (Sorry. Had to say that. Slightly racist…? Or am I missing something?) I personally love the designs.
April 17th, 2009 at 3:20 pm
These are gay tbh.
April 18th, 2009 at 3:08 am
better idea
brush the korpus neon green and let the pickguard white
April 19th, 2009 at 8:59 am
YA i love the old school fenders
not too much of a fan of these ones
April 22nd, 2009 at 8:38 am
I like the purple one personally…. I think the gray one is cluttered.
April 25th, 2009 at 8:59 pm
The purple one FTW, though it would be cooler if there were a royal blue one. THAT would kick ass. Just saying.
May 12th, 2009 at 8:47 pm
this reminds me of the +44 bus i like this and the pink one hmm……. THIS ONE
May 21st, 2009 at 7:22 pm
wow man i found this like very late but I’m loving it
I love tokidoki, I have adios and ciaociao vinyl toys ,and well after reading the comments and reading that almost anyone knows what tokidoki is, here is a description:
Tokidoki is a japanese influenced style (not japanese) brand, created by the Italian designer Simone Legno (now living in LA). Tokidoki have made collaborations with huge brands such as mercedes benz, sanrio (hello kitty), nike and lesportsac
Tokidoki designed the tour bus for +44 when they were touring in the honda civic tour , and Mark has tokidoki clothes (so I´m envy for that cuz’ i haven’t seen one)
and well now is kinda designing the mark’s new bass and MAN I’M LOVING IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
