Had my bass around 4 months now and it continues to amaze me. Plays like a dream and tonally it does absolutely everything i need it too.

Im currently using an ampeg ba115 combo but i think their may be a fault with it as top end range is lacking alot lately and i know full well its not the bass.
Looking to buy a bigger ampeg rig at some point because this bass deserves the best amp i can find.

Well done EBMM, amazing instruments and unequaled quality.

I always say this, but I love mine! Although I'm a single H guy, the Sterling is a seriously bad bad bad (meaning awesome) bass. I'm still waiting for my newest one (in my sig). I ordered it 3 months ago, unfortunately EBMM is running behind and I'll have to wait another 4 weeks. No worries, I have 2 others to bide my time!

I will never go back to a single H bass, the extra pickup just makes complete sense and coupled with the 5 way switch it just makes it the most versatile bass going. Next one will be a fretless HH sterling 5, not sure what colour yet though.

Heck yes! I love my Sterlings. Most comfortable basses I've ever played!

I'm with you on the love for 2 pickups. I love the versatility in sounds and the positioning of the neck pickup is perfect for anchoring my thumb while playing.

I dig the simplicity of the single H (although I am ordering a Big Al 4SSS, so forget simplicity there, LOL). I can get lots of tones just by hand position and EQ. But it's awesome we have the choice, keeps everyone happy!

The extra pickup seems to give the bass alot of extra dimensions. The 5 way lever is so useful and i use every setting throughout a gig. I recently did some recording for my band and the guy recording me said its the best bass he's ever heard.
