Let's see those beautiful Black Basses

This one has been on here a few pages ago but now it is MINE and making another appearance. It is a newer model from SbMM, the RAY34HH StingRay Stealth. Also picked up the Orange Crush Bass 50 just a few days ago. They are a powerful pair to say the least.

this makes my 3rd all black bass, each include a matching headstock and in some ways it tops the other two which is a high bar considering one is an '80s Fender PJ with a graphite matted neck outta Japan and the other is the stalwart LTD B-50. but my bargain basement Samick Silvertone LB11 came unloved and ignored, covered in muck and old strings (fortunately old strings are a plus to me) and without even a set up the cheapo felt and sounded like Leo had a hand in it's creation. for those looking for a great P yet crave a slimmer neck then here ya go, another plus is the weight, or lack of it, and with some shielding the slight buzz will be quieted, then it will be beyond perfect. as is I can't keep my hands off of it much to my disappointment regarding my other favorites, hats off to Samick, they know how to make a brand new vintage Fender P.
