Got this bass a few days ago through a trade plus cash on my end and have been able to put it through its paces. I have to say this one is definitely a keeper and may have even calmed my gas for the rest of year! (probably not though...) Anyway she's Cruz Teal, roasted maple neck, ebony fretboard, and looker for sure. This is honestly only the second bass my wife has said is pretty. But enough of that below are some pics and a cover vid I did with her.

Thanks Dr. Cheese. Totally agree with you on the teal. That's what really made the decision to get this one. I've been hunting for one for months and this one came up, so I had to grab it. Apparently they don't do this color anymore as standard... it's a crime I tell ya.

This is one of those finishes that they should have released with a matching headstock. I bet your wife likes it for these reason that I do....It looks lie a Tiffanys box!!:drool::drool::drool:

Hell yeah!!! Looks dope brotha! Sounds just like my Stingray… Perfect.

Smooth, but aggressive… just like me. Though, I doubt my wife would describe me that way. Loaded, no OVERloaded mashed potatoes. Yeah. Bacon, sour cream, chives, fresh cracked blacked pepper, cheddar cheese, compound butter, Himalayan pink salt, fresh mined garlic, heavy cream… That's more like it.

Congrats! With the ebony board is one of my fav combination, a few years ago I had a 4 HH in that finish which did not stay long as a i was moving to 5 strings but it was GORGEOUS. I'll get myself another Stingray Special one day and would love to find some of the first run (I also do miss my Chopper blue)
