Welcome to the forum, congrats on the bass and you are in for a good time! The Sterling is my favorite bass, unless I just played a Bongo or a SR... I really do favor the Sterling the most, but all Balls are great!
She just arrived today. As requested, some pics. Dayum, this sparkle looks even better in person. I understand that the market dictates whether or not a finish catches on, but I'll never figure out why more people didn't like this finish.
