I picked up a new bass over the weekend, it was custom built for Eric Wilson ( Sublime ) in 2010 . It shares features/ specs from the new Classic series bass line from EB .Probably the biggest difference is it's HH equipped. It's finished in a custom Seafoam/Grey, Old school headstock logo,bridge mutes, glossy finished neck with 7.5 radius and small fret wire, MM logo neck joint plate, black pickup covers, oh yes three band eq, over the usual two band on the new classics. The case was probably a throw in at the factory, the badge inside it says" Limited Edition 2008" nice case just the same with all the usual case candy.

But I know Sterling sure hates hearing of artists selling off their custom jobbers. |

The bass then came to me in a trade. I needed a bass and this will do fine for now. Although i've had SR basses in the past , I still enjoy the classic Fenders. I have my eye on a vintage tobacco sunburst Jazz bass right now.

If I decide to let it go , it won't be for a trade this time around, it has some unique features so it won't go cheap. But I will let you know just the same. |

My 2000 Purple Pearl just Sold today, I had a feeling it wouldn't take long. The kid who bought it seemed to appreciate what it was. He didn't even try and haggle with me. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
