    I too am hoping for Roasted necks on all basses. If that is an option, every bass I order from here on out will have them. I like them that much. I think new colors will obviously appear, maybe more info on the Game Changer, and maybe info on the new Cobalt strings. Can't wait to see those and try them out on my basses.

    I also wonder if there will be a bass or something special out by EBMM to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Ernie Ball company?

    Well, ...a new EB strings (50th Anniversary) will be for sure at NAMM, ...talkin' 'bout EBMM basses?, ...well, ...maybe a new color chart? Maybe Gamechanger in other bass model/s? Maybe a few LTD edition models?

    We'll see soon...

    Strings!

    They've been teasing us with these new strings for a while. I'm really interested in hearing these and how they'll sound on my 30th (since that's my go to bass).
