    I want a funkadelic Sterling

    I have my bid on a white sparkle Sterling on Ebay. I had to place an early bid to cause the "buy it now" option to disappear so no one else would snatch it up. Tomorrow the auction ends and the suspense is killing me!!!! I want this bass soooooo bad. I probably should have done the "buy it now" but I am stingy with my money and was out to get the lower price.

    I hope I win this bass so I can get that funkadelic sound. Wish me luck. If I win then I will post photos of me holding the bass and smiling wide.

    Thanks everyone for the well wishes.

    Randracula that is very considerate of you but please feel free to bid. I am not staking any claims. It is all in fun.

    Actually I couldn't believe how long that blue dawn Sterling sat on Ebay with that $795 buy it now. Someone just picked that baby up tonight. If I hadn't already bid on the white one, I would have snagged that one. All I need is a MM pickup, rosewood fretboard and sparkle. That's what it has to be.

    Yep syciprider, it is likely that it was a bad move but either way I will get one of these babies and I will deliver the funk.

    If you're interested in just a plain white Sterling, there's one for sale on ebay that is about 30 seconds from my house. It's Travis' ex Sterling. The BIN is $700. Check it out.
