    signature basses???

    Hey

    I was wondering why Ernie Ball has not put out a signature bass. I think it would sell very well. Like a Tony Levin, Dave Larue...anyone really. I know OLP has the Levin now but we should have one too.

    Can you guys at EB help me out with this. I am sure it can be done, you have many a signature guitar out.

    Let me know please.

    Well we DO have the Sterling and Sterling Ball is the boss and as of tomorrow I'll have two signature Sterlings... one with teeth and one without.


    Damn I love these basses!

    at open house, i think, Jack asked why there wasnt a Tony Levin Sig. For those who werent there, this was at a round table discussion with Sterling Ball and a bunch of EB artists, including Tony Levin. I beleive Tony's answer was something like "I like the basses already; i wouldnt change anything".
