As Jim Carrey would say.....

"I like it a lot"

 

[tiffles]

oh hell that is the (to use the proper term) "smexyest" finish ive EVER seen!!

 

[johans]

is that one of those rare exotic finishes that no longer exist .. ?

 

[mike not fat]

that color is absolutly atomic ! makes me think of a green lime (which juice is great with vodka). Will EBMM evr make it again ?

I notice that EBMM likes to use different green for the special edition : this one, the envy green, the "felix the cat green" bongo, the martini olive...Looks much better as the sad mystic dream avaible !

Oh my, that is the "King of all Bursts"

Gretsch made some unusual green finishes over the years.I remember almost gagging when I first saw Sherwood Green and then grew to like it.That green Ray is right up there.

Oddly enough I like the Dennis Rodman burst StingRay (except the graphite neck, just not a graphite fan). Whats the story on that bass?

This has got me wondering what my Pacific Blue Burst SR5 would look like with a Status neck. NNNNice!!!!

Has anyone here tried a Status neck on an EB bass?

I just got a quote from Status to supply and fit a Carbon-Fibre neck complete with side LEDs to an SR5 - expensive but probably worth it. I really like the neck on the Cutlass and it's probably safer to have the LEDs fitted in manufacture rather than have SIMS run a router down the original MM neck.

Now I need to sell a few bits to finance it. I guess it should be fairly easy to sell the original MM maple/rosewood neck.

Oh and before you flame me I bought the bass already modified with a Bart and an OBP3 and I don't have the original pup or pre, so it'll never go back to original.

Dave - d'you how much just to supply the neck? I'd love a GN on my 'Ray.

Would they NEED to fit the neck or is it being done by status due to the LED's?

 

[oldbluebassman]

The prices of the necks are on their web site.

The LEDs are about the same again as the cost of the neck.

You can buy a neck and do it yourself or have them do it and they will set up the bass for you.

There's an additional charge for adding a battery box for the LEDs.

I've played so many places in the last couple of years where I haven't been able to see what I'm doing that I think it would be worth it.

Thanks Dave.

And I thought you were getting the LED's just to be a flash harry!
