Hey guys! Count me in...just got Mrfstop's white Big Al! And its a beast!

So far my favorite setting is all buttons up. And the middle soloed is a close second. Lots of tones coming of this thing. I would describe it as having underlying Fender tones with an EBMM twist on it. You can hear the stingray/sterling qualities in it especially with the rear and middle pickups on.

Anyway, can't wait to get off work and play it!

Premiere Dealer Network. The PDN basses for 2012 was A limited edition this year with mahogany bodies, pau ferro fretboards, stainless steel frets, roasted maple necks, and a honey burst color. The order window was in April and are starting to ship now. I ordered a 4string Big Al, and am still waiting for it.

A couple of questions. I would love to try one of these out but no brick and mortar retailer seems to stock them. Anyone in the greater Los Angeles area know where I can put my hands on one to try it out?

Second, I have been reading TB for a while but I still don't understand how one orders a bass to their specs from EBMM. If I want a Candy Red Big Al with a matching headstock, do I just wait until one shows up online or at a store somewhere, or do I special order it? If the latter, from whom? EBMM, or a dealer? How does that work?

I think bass central still has a PDN Big Al 4 string SSS that has not been spoken for yet. If you really want one this might be the very small window of opportunity that won't last long.
