Wow....this is such a great club.....i also had a stinger bee built by fred this past year, and would love to be a part of this club. mine is a nine string made out of black limba wood with a zebrawood top, and an acrylicized purpleheart fingerboard, i got the pickups that are available in a triple combo, but in just a dual.....i am extremely happy with this bass, it plays like a dream

Yeah, I know your pain... it's been 7-8 months since my deposit, which puts it at about 4 months late with no contact in those months, except a note to say that my body wood had developed a crack and would have to be scrapped for another body. I don't have anything important enough to say to warrant calling, but it would be nice to have just one of my emails returned. Oh well...

holy sweet freekin' bejeebuz...that smokes...SMOKz
wow, really? well, i've been waiting for about 6 and it will be ready in two weeks...i also had to wait on an outsourced graphite neck and then there was NAMM to deal with...it's all good...i'm almost at the end of the waiting game
hey, does anyone know where to get strings for a nine string bass. mine are getting kind of worn, and i have no idea where to order a new set from
S.I.T. are really popular strings for the ERB guys...they come in several guages up to .195 (jauqo's set) and you can get them individually...contact them directly, SIT are great people
I'm using LaBella Hard Rockin Steel on my 7. They don't go thinner than the wrapped .022 high E I'm using that I know off... but they do go a bit thicker than the .118 low B I use.
Wait is on 7 months here. I was prepared though because it seems EVERY custom maker is way optimistic with their ETA's.

yeah, i'm so diggin' it...can't wait to see what it looks like completed as a 5 string...the ERB's look awesome
I have been lurking for awhile now. These basses are works of art, seriuosly. How ever long it takes for this guy to make these, is worth it. I personally would be afraid to play a bass this beautiful. Consider yourselves very lucky and fortunate to be able to afford these works of art. Now back to the SX forums LOL
I love that zebrawood top!
yah man, fred went through two other tops before he found the one that i really liked
Fred says that he's got allot of builds going on at this time, but for me to expect NEW PROGRESS PICS of my 9-String Stinger Bee!!!! Its gonna have a Bookmatched ACRYLICISED EBONY fretboad with nine peice neck, and the new custom wound TRIPLE DELANO NINE STRING "JSBC" ELECTRONICS!!!
