3 Bolt, VS 4 Bolt, VS 6 Bolt

[Musicman Nut]

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

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.

Please sign up for photobucket. I am sure everybody wants to see pictures.

 

[Derek]

Come on Dave .. You know once you start posting photo everyone will be blown away by what you have stashed in your closet.

 

[Mahlon]

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.

 

[Mahlon]

And then they gave me an account without it. I'll shut up now.

 

[dlloyd]

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

Well i Have a Few, I have a green one with a bound body, matching head i love,
a cherry burst with a bound body that is amazing, the green is a 6 bolt, the cherry a 4.

The new Bongo has raised my eye brows tho, Even though i will Die a EB Stingray man, the Bongo is at every show i do and yes i play it, I have the 2 pickup model.

I have the best walk in storage ever, these Basses are meant to be played and they get played.
Thanks Dave J
