EBMM StingRay Special Club

TBH the E, A and D (G was hit or miss so it could’ve been me) strings are buzzing on a fret so I need to take a deeper look. Of course it was slightly out of tune as well. Not sure how much setup Sweetwater does. I literally played it for 30 seconds though and otherwise it feels great.

I don’t think Sweetwater does any setup (if I understood correctly when I asked my sales guy). They have a checklist they run through.
They do have a good warranty and customer service but it sounds like zzounds sets theirs up.
 
I think it's just luck if you get a good setup. AMS and Zsounds are not affiliated but share a wearhouse in Mississippi.
My bass was listed on both of their websites. Same serial number so I had to ask my sales guy. He reluctantly told me they are competors but share a wearhouse. You do what you have to do and cut cost these days.

Getting a good setup is like getting a good meal. What I consider a good meal may be very different from what you consider a good meal
 
Got mine from Sweetwater, spot on.
Aqua Blue Sparkle, loving it!!!

Well ... I love fancy colours ;). I hope Mr.Ball has some love for us european MM adicts and makes these colour options available in Europe too.

Yes, we have some in the Uk, including Invalid Link Removed

When I bought my Special 7 weeks ago in the UK Andertons had a great selection of the cool colours. Though I went for black, haha! :roflmao::laugh::bassist:
