Angled, looped through the strap to keep it out of the way and from being yanked out when someone or myself steps on the cable.

Unfortunately I believe it’s a fake for several reasons. Tuners aren’t branded, “Made in...” in weird place, the front logo looks strange to me as well. Headstock is too elongated on the nut side. ...
Bongo5HH with Dave Larue's custom gauges (40-60-75-95-125) but it's too darn much trouble and $ to put this set together since it doesn't exist in a prepacked set. There's a close 4 set, Extra...
I like the option of buying from Pete or another great dealer, and also buying more limited/special stock straight from EBMM. I think it's the best of both worlds. It's doesn't cut the dealers out...
This is a pretty cool surprise. And nice that these are direct from EBMM...nice for us and nice for them!
Awesome score!
My Morse is also a Neptune with roasted maple neck/fretboard. It's the best feeling guitar neck I've ever played!
My pet project for years has been a Morse Standard. In the time that I've had the Morse and have been planning what to do with it I've modded a couple of basses, a strat, a Tele, and learned how to...
I hadn't thought of it this way until now, but it seems that the Sterling and Stingray(special) roles have been reversed. The Sterling is now the heavier, more basic workhorse. The...
I thought the same initially, but it makes sense to me now..at least about the 18v preamp part. Isn't the 18v designed specifically for the new neodymium magnet Stingray pickups? And to keep the...
It received a roasted maple neck and stainless steel frets...both of which are, I believe, new to the Sterling model.
Congrats on both fronts! Also, I'd love to find one of those Music Man hats like I've seen Joe Bonamassa wear.35883
If you can get your hands on stealth black hw, that and a flat black pickguard would look awesome! Either way, what a bass!
Awesome bass! I agree that everyone should own one...I need to get to work on that!
I have yet to try a Bongo H, or even of Bongo 4 string. I would imagine, with as comfortable as the Bongo5HH is, the 4 string Bongo would be the most comfortable bass ever. Especially with a...
Speaking of Bongo, not to hijack your thread, but my favorite Bongo tone is Dave Larue's. I've been chasing his fingerstyle tone for a while now, and i can't quite get it. The closest I've come is...
I like having the mid sweep but I haven’t used it in a live setting yet, mostly because the bass/treble sound so good. I keep my treble in the detent and the bass just slightly beyond the detent. ...
So the Big Man has much more output with the East pre than the original pickup with the East pre? Weird wild stuff! Thanks for the info.
I just noticed the Nordstrand Bigman. Is the preamp stock? Is the toggle a 3-way for parallel/split/series or some other 3-way or 2-way switching? What differences do you notice between the stock...
I love the smell of a curing nitro finish in the morning :)
I only have personal experience with the Nordstrand (MM5.2 in my case), so I concur.
What tone are you trying to achieve? I’m not familiar with the SBMM Sub basses...is yours three band(bass mid...
Great job! Will look forward to seeing some actual play wear on a nitro bass. Don’t see too many of those.
Tort for sure. Looks great!
Give us an example of the tone you're chasing, and we might be able to give you specific recommendations. My opinion on this: you can replicate the old, classic pre-EB Stingray tone using a...
Don’t quote me but I believe the ones I saw that had weights posted were somewhere around 7.5 or so.
