2010 le...

[Duarte]

I have been wondering...The 2010 LE. What could it possibly be?

I have my hopes of a sparkly autumn redrise thing. Mainly because I want a bongo in said colour.

Yes it is very early to be thinking of this, especially with all the new offerings. But, if BP is around...redrise Bongos!

Wait.... is there even an LE09? Or is that the 25th anni bass?

 

[RocketRalf]

There is no 2009LE, only the 25ths, the Big AL, and MAYBE some of the traditional models being offered in the Stealth color option: So far JP and Stingray have been spotted.

Where have you been?

Yes, the 25th is the 09LE.

The MM site has the Stealth option listed for StingRay, StingRay5, Sterling, and Sterling5...as well as the Bongo, of course.

far too early for '10 - just sit back and enjoy '09

Oh yes! Oh yes! A Sterling 5 in Stealth. I assume with black hardware as the Bongo?
I can see that in the near future.

Yes, the 25th is the 09LE.

It's getting confusing Too many new models (wait, no such thing as too many!)

 

[syciprider]

I can dig the 25th as a regular production model in stealth. Mmmm good!

Here's one that's mis-labelled as an '09 LE ... a Rosweood necked BFR. This dealer's close to me. I'm gonna have cruise by there tomorrow and inspect this puppy.

 

[oddjob]

I do bleeb that is the 1st rosewood to rear its head... nice!

 

[mmbassplayer]

Robert... you should snap a few pics of that bad boy for those of us on the Rosewood BFR waiting list. May subside some of my GAS pains. JOSH

Way cool! Robert, I'd dig if you could compare the sound to regular 'Rays with maple or maple/rosewood necks and tell us about it.

I'll definitely take the camera & see if Jason from DCGL is cool with it. I wouldn't think he'd mind. They should take more pics of their basses, huh?

Wasn't able to get over to Drum City Guitar Land today. My wife began feeling sick around noon (migraine with nausea/vomiting - sorry if that's TMI) & ended up going to the ER. She's feeling better tonight, thanks to a few Rx's.

DCGL isn't open on Sunday. I'm planning to try to leave work early Monday to get by there. Gotta do what ya gotta do. I've also been wanting to get over there to check out the Sterling Silver SR4 they've got - I still haven't seen that color in person. I'll let yas know if I can get some pics of the Rosewood BFR. If I get some, I'll post 'em in the "Rosewood BFR sighting" thread I opened.

 

[oli@bass]

Thanks for the info. All the best to your wife. Looking forward to reading your reports.

 

[somesmerized]

Is it just me, or is now a good time to revive this thread?

 

[Duarte]

Now is in fact a good time.

I am curious again.

 

[Moose308]

I hear that the 2010 (is it twenty-ten, or two-thousand-ten?) LE will be a birdseye maple necked Bongo, maple fretboard, clear-coated swamp-ash body, with tort pickguard.

That's what I hear anyhow.

 

[ngutenson]

I want Silverburst.
