A trip to Guitar Center

[Dr Stankface]

Jeez if the GC near me had that much stuff I'd actually go there to shop. They might have 3 MM basses on a good day, and only Ampeg amps. No Mesa, and no PJB..that's for darn sure. Did I see a Ken Smith there too?

Yeah. There was a mighty nice Ken Smith 6 up on the wall. Never did pick it up though. I was in a trance by that HH SR5.

I think it's cool that you guys can go hang out togther at GC and try a few basses out as 'forum friends'. Looks like fun was had by all.

How bout getting serious & doing us a review of those 2 pup 'Rays?

I would personally love to give a review at the moment but i've got to head to work. I'm sure Travis will post one when he gets on here. Personally, I think those were honestly the best basses I have ever played. That SR5 in the middle position almost had me in tears. I only have to wait 6 more months for mine.

So, as a spur the moment thing, me and Travis decided to head up to Guitar Center. And here are the results....

Let's start with the selection they had....

What a sweet bunch!
Is that Black with Moonstone or Sapphire Black??? It's hard to tell.

 

[TSanders]

Its sapphire black w/ moonstone. Looked killer and I noticed that Ray was about 8.5 pounds.

Id write a review, but frankly, I just dont feel like it right now.

Yeah, and most of them have the tips of the knife switches broken off, they're scratched and dented, missing knobs, etc.

I SOOOO love my SR5 (blue dawn), but to have a dual pickup one...oh, man. I would consider selling, but I just can't. Mine is such an amazing player...Oh, the agony!

 

[pattiejay]

ooo man - you guys are lucky!

hopefully you guys WILL (and i repeat - WILL) find the time to give us a review - especially for us aussies who probably have to wait a lifetime to get some stock down under, let alone try them out

When the mood takes you, Buddy, I'll be all eyes.

Don't hand me that, young man. Do your homework, clean your room, and write that review. 500 word minimum.

 

[bovinehost]

And mind your grammar.

 

[tkarter]

And take that dirty cap off too.
