    Celebrating my two year anniversary

    I though tomorrow was the day, but after a look at my records, today is my 2 year anniversary.

    Two years ago today, my autumn redburst StingRay 5 showed up at my front door.

    What a wonderful two years its been with this bass. Its never let me down live or in the studio. This is a special bass, and it is the bass by which all others are judged. Many basses have come and gone in the last two years. Most of them were great, but not great enough to dethrone this SR5 from its role as my main player.

    I LOVE THIS BASS.

    Pics over the last couple years:

    Jon, youve personally given two of my basses a good going over, and I hope you know how gifted you are. You are a class act bro.

    Wish I could swing the Dallas trip. If I could come, the SR5 would ride for sure.

    Travis, of all the instruments I have worked on, this was one of my favorites. This was a labor of love kind of thing, and I am stoked to have had the chance to work on it.

    There is so much good mojo involved with that bass(BP knows what we are talking about). YOU are a class act my friend, I hope the bass gives you many years of enjoyment!
