EBMM StingRay Special Club

I never thought of that. Someone will love the fact that its rear routed and all of that flamed grain in the ash shows through. It's a nice chocolatey dark rosewood. And that smooth roasted neck feels great. I have not weighed it yet. But im sure it's still well under 9 lbs.
We’re hoping for less than 9 lbs.?

I’m good with 8.5 lbs. - 9.4 lbs.

Ive considered a gold sparkle pick guard but I feel it will take focus away from the beautiful burst. The white pearl /burst combo gives it a vintage aspect. I happen to love pearls ( my birthstone) and white is one of my favorite colors. So I might stick with the pearl pickguard. I have ordered a clear pickguad because I would love to maintain the see all of the burst look of the Fuego. However, there is the problem of the route hole and electronics showing through. If I can figure out a way to cover it up and have it still look good I'll try it out. I also considered changing out the pickup cover to white, but I think the black really pops and also matches the headstock logo script. So the black stays.

I wish I could get a remote job, designing basses for EBMM. :p
You carefully thought out every detail, I wouldn’t expect anything less from you! :hyper::hyper::hyper:
 
So I just did a thing....... I'm kinda in shock....
I got the ok from my wife to get that Ocean Sparkle 4H that was in the classifieds Friday.
Seller changed his mind. I was crushed....
I was following one of the exact same basses on reverb.
I just got an offer from the seller, cause I was watching it I guess.
$2240!!! Plus tax. $2371 when done

Watching stuff on reverb really pays off sometimes! I do it often just to see what deals I can get.

Congrats . You got a great deal. EBMM has some great dark chocolate looking rosewood with very nice grain on their fingerboards on recent models. They look amazing.

I’m so glad that you got the color you wanted. Buy your wife something nice .;):thumbsup:

I have NEVER seen a deal come through just for watching things.
And that big a discount..... CRAZY!!!
Maybe I need to watch more things..
It must be a Reverb thing about discounts ….

When I bought my Stingray Special 5H, I was looking for used ones on Reverb. But I saw the new one I eventually bought and clicked Watch.

This was at 9:30pm. Within 10 minutes, I had an offer to sell me the bass for $2399 instead of $2899!

I whipped out a card and bought it right then.
