    Thumbs up 3 Bolt, VS 4 Bolt, VS 6 Bolt

    Hello Music Man Friends
    As some of you may or may not know the on growing of my Music Man Bass Collection of over 75 Music Man Basses.
    Well as i'am forever asked why i Prefer the EB basses over the Fender Music Man and why i love the EB 4 Bolt the best.

    For me it's like this, The Ernie Ball 4 Bolt, 2 and 3 band stingrays are The Very Best Basses Ever Made on the face of this earth.

    The shape of the necks, the weight of the basses, they just kick butt.

    Even though i have 46 of them i must say That EB nailed it with the 6 Bolt, Wheel truss rod neck Guitars and Basses.

    Please note After EB did the wheel truss rod everybody else copied them.
    Im not claiming they we're the first, but i had not seen any til EB put them on a Stingray, Now they're everywhere, and look like the EB style.

    Dudley Gimpbel, who is Our Leo Fender of our time is Just an Amazing craftsman.
    and we all know the Master Sterling Ball who has taken this Music Man Bass to new extremes
    These Basses Just are THE BEST BASSES EVER TO EXCIST, Bar None.

    Wow, you've downsized your collection a bit.

    Do you have photos of your current inventory?

    Heh!

    The easiest way to post photos is to set up an account with photobucket.com (which is free), upload them there and link them in the post.

    Hey dave

    are you comming to the open house......as luke would say " does flipper have a blowhole"


    Dave you made my day when you told me you bought a bongo. You made today by telling us that it blows you away.

    That is two original non believers today that now see the bongo light.

    Why that many, Well it's like an old pair of jeans, when they fit perfect you buy a few more pair. These Ernie Ball 4 Bolts are Just that and alot more.
    And No Man or Woman can never have enough EB Basses.

    I just tried to sign up for photobucket. First they tried 3 times to get me hooked up with come college junk, then they asked for my social security number. Like I need to give them that.

    Odd that you got asked for a social security number... I'd check that your firewall was okay. The only information I had to give was this...



    It took two minutes to register, confirm, upload this picture and post it here.

    I thought I was Stingray mad 3 questions if I may
    It must cost you a fortune in strings does it?
    How do you house them eg a special room for all your basses
    Do you have a favourite one?

    thanks
