    Pretty cool toy pic.

    I am friends with Ronnie Cates, the former bass player of the Christian rock band Petra. He played for them for around 10 years I think? Anyway, a fan sent him a picture of an action figure of him with one of his basses. He posted it on Facebook and when I checked the picture out, the bass was a Music Man. I know Ronnie used them while in Petra along with some other brands but I thought it was cool his action figure had a Stingray. Here is the pic.



    As far as bassists go, Ronnie is probably the one player that inspired me the most. I absolutely love his style of playing. Anyway, when I saw the pic I though it would be cool to share with you all on here.

    Also on a side note, Ronnie plays right handed but for some reason this Stingray is left handed or the photo is reversed?

    If you can access that image with decent
    resolution, you could check the decal well
    enuf to see if the phote is flipped L-to-R.

    bovinehost: Yes, I do agree with that, but if there's nothing wrong then there's nothing wrong.
    Beth: I would compare Bongo to Tommy Lee Jones. Bad a$$ and just hot in a weird way...
    cheezewiz: They should take their lace thongs off and play bass.
