MusicMan MM or Sterling Stealth Bass- Thoughts, Impressions, Pics?

Ok, so I have an obsession with the EBMM or Sterling Stealth basses. I'm thinking about purchasing a SLO neck Stingray or a Sterling for the thinner neck and really interested in people that own these Stealth basses. Please post pics or share your story. I've used search already and haven't found much.

I know it's just a finish, but for me I love the black look and MM seems to be a good fit for me since I'm not a Fender guy.

Be nice, I'm a newbie and playing since August. Currently own a Ibby SR300 in grey. I'd keep that one since its my "first". Music styles are John Taylor (DD), The Smiths, Bush, old Simple Minds, Bryan Ferry/Roxy Music, etc.

I had one. Loved it. Just didn't like the ebony fingerboard. But nice tones, and you can't beat the look!!! I had a 5 string stealth string ray HH. If you don't mind an ebony board then you'll marry the damn bass!

Here's a picture of my ex-girlfriend. It was a harsh breakup.

The most amazing one I ever saw (in pics) was on Bass Central's website - an SR4 fretless - invisible except for the headstock decal!! Seriously though - fretless ebony board on a stealth black finish - so cool.

For you that own a Stealth have you had problems with the finish showing nicks and scratches more?
