Hi all. I just registered to post this!

I also have a 20th anniversary SR4. I bought it in London in 2002. As far as I can tell it's the only one in Ireland!

It's fairly battle-scarred (I have gigged the bejeesus out of her) and badly needs a new set of strings (I use D'addario ProSteels) but I love her to bits. She was the first bass I bought. I borrowed a friend's SR (3tone sunburst) for a few months and had decided I was going to buy the same model, but I found mine in the Bass Cellar on Denmark Street in London and bought it that day. I was told that she had been lying in her case in the back of a store room for a few years, and I'm fairly certain the guy wasn't lying since she was spotless when I first played her.

I love the attention I get from other bassists - Stingrays are two a penny around here but nobody's got one like mine!

Take it easy...

Dave.

Two a penny?! At that price I could have as many as Musicman Nut for $1 !!

Welcome Dave. But no pics, no bass. :)

Alright, pics will be posted soon. But you'll all have to restrain yourselves from abusing me for not keeping the fingerboard clean...

EDIT - here's one from a gig in London about two years ago. Best I can do right now. Now do you believe me? :p

This is the EBMM I wanted to buy back then when I didn't have two penny's to rub together.

I keep my eyes open and every now and then I see one on the 'bay. Makes me wish I had sold more blood to get the money back then... ;)

Still is my favorite SR of all.
