    I'm Back (If you will have me)

    All,

    I was a StingRay, Bongo and SUB player until I sold them all last year. Now I am back.

    I realize I was wrong to play Sadowsky, Lakland, Gibson and Fender.

    I missed you guys and the EBMM mojo so much, I had no choice but to go out and buy a 2007LE StingRay today (Blue with matching headstock, single H, maple board). Please don't hate me for cheating on EB, I have found the error in my ways. I promise never to be without MM again.

    Pics to come but it is like the below (but single H and maple neck).

    Seriously though.... this is an amazing bass. The sanded neck, finish, etc. Amazing. And the workmanship is BETTER than my Sadowsky NYC.

    Can't want to gig with this thing. It will be a busy bass.

    Hoo, me either!

    Welcome back, Baird!

    And the workmanship is BETTER than my Sadowsky NYC.
    Man, them's fighting words in some corner of the interwebs!

    I kind of like hearing them, though.

    I bet I would get ripped a new one over on Talk Bass for posting that my SR is made better than my $4000 Sadowsky.
