Oh my..... oh my!




Its.... beautiful.


If they done it as a 5er, I'd probably hurt myself with excitement, as is, I could easily see picking one up.

This was posted yesterday. I want rosewood.

Wow! Awesome! And look, the pickup is like a normal Stingray pickup! (as in two individual screw mounts vs. the wide curved bar for the top screws)

 

[Rusty Chainsaw]

If they do this in a 5-string, in either black or natural, I'll be all over it like a rash.

I wouldn't care if they done it in glow in the dark pink, long as the board was maple.

Awesome. EBMM is really pushing hard in this market. The Ray34's are great, I think this is even better!

To be honest, I really only like the Stingray with the 2 band EQ. I will more than like buy one of these to replace my 3 band EBMM Stingray.

DUDE, man and I just ordered a custom bass too...

 

[yellofury]

Cool
I already have a SUB but this is a cool move by EBMM

 

[Will Kelly]

So when are these coming to market?

So when are these coming to market?

I'm sure we will no more after NAMM, so next week.

I wonder what the pricing's going to be like. This is absolutely my favorite look for a Ray.

Little more info.
Looks towards early spring (not confirmed).

OMG. This is going to be the best NAMM ever! Dean reaveling thier JAE line (they look really promising, I just hope they dont suck) and now this. bravo to Sterling, bravo!

 

[GregC]

Wow. I thought when the Classic 'Rays came out, it was said that it would be a long time, if ever, before the SBMM line would include 2-bands.

 

[tastybasslines]

I may have to sell my silverburst Ray 34 to get one of these OMG!!

 

[bassplayer1494]

man i hope these basses sound close to the MM classic series rays so i can cure my GAS at a lower price!

 

[Josh Pelican]

My eyes like what they see.

 

[BassesForTheWin]

I wonder if there will be more colour options? cause as much as I love sunburst, I wont beable to just chose that I would like more options.
