oh yea....forgot this one... I went back to 4 string for a little while... gosh i miss this bass...These Sterling by MM SB1's are insane basses on the cheap...used market is the way to go on these.. I've seen em got for as low as $350....insane basses on the cheap, if you play 4 string, and need somethin snappy and punchy...I put the red pearl guard on it, because the white one was butt ugly.
