    My New Baby

    Hey guys,

    My name is Jesse and I hail from the Great White North

    Well, the Big Brown Truck dropped off my new #1 today.
    NOS from Bass Central (Thanks Dave!)

    She was supposed to be a SLO Special, but there was a mix up in the delivery room. I kept her anyway!

    I even treated her to some DR Neon Greens.

    (p.s. these basses ARE hard to photograph)

    Excuse the wet ebony, she just had a conditioning after sitting in her case for 3 years

    2009 SR4HH Dargie Delight 2














    Cheers!

    Those strings are ultra-cool on that bass!

    Congrats and welcome, beautiful baby you have there

    Stingray 4HH are amazing instruments and DDII on top of that. Great choice on keeping her.

    Bass Central is the best IMO.

    Yeah, I really can't express how great Bass Central (Dave) was to deal with!

    Phenomenal customer service, and they really went out of their way to make me happy after a minor stock oversight.

    It's just nice to see real customer service after dealing with my (L)ocal (M)usic store.
