Finally I have one!

[Martybass]

It's my 18th Birthday today, and my joint present from my parents and grandparents...

The photos just don't do it justice. It's stunning. GAS relieved for now

nice bass! I really love the pickguard on the blue body. Looks really nice. Have fun with it.

 

[r6mile]

Really good-looking bass! Congrats! There's just one thing that I find weird: why does it have three tuners on one side and one on the other?

couldn't have put it better myself.

Martybass, that's a killer colour combination man. enjoy.

 

[CBRStingray]

That thing is gorgeous!! Congratulations! That's the kind of birthday present you never, EVER sell.

 

[RiseOfTheWooten]

You lucky bastard.

 

[Martybass]

Thanks guys! Yeah I don't think I'll be getting rid of this one in a hurry! The matching headstock just blows me away too.
Also, I knew the body was downsized, but I never really appreciated how small it was until I put it next to my Ibanez. Weighs more than the Ibanez though. Probably because its not basswood

 

[Chef]

Sweet! Congrats, and enjoy!

 

[superbassman2000]

(i might have to send this link to my parents )

 

[tZer]

Give the rents and g-rents a big ol' hug! A thankyou card never hurts either!

 

[Mike]

nice. MM's rock.

 

[naja]

Awesome!! A sterling is the only bass on my GAS list right now.

You'll have to let us know how you like the feel and sound!!

 

[simongpaez]

What great Granpas you have man !!!

I wish I had an ernie ball when I was 18,
I had a Peavey Foundation that cost me 300 bucks and after saving a lot at 23 I finally got an Fender American Standard Jazz, so way to go you arein the right track AND AT 26 I got an ernie ball so you are 8 years ahead

It's stunning. GAS relieved for now.

Thing is GAS will stike again eventually...

Just an ongoing cycle.

Seriously though, glad you like your bass.

 

[Matt Call]

Tasty.

 

[Ikkir]

Beautiful bass - have fun with her!

 

[Figjam]

Wonderful choice My Sterling basically cured me of all non ebmm GAS indefinitely. Although a few basses have crept back into my mind, but tahts just because i have a wenge fetish that cant be cured by EBMM.

 

[Vic]

That is my favorite Sterling of all time. Dang.

 

[jazzbo58]

Beautiful bass! Congrats and Happy Birthday!

Cheers,
