Big Poppa's Ultimate Bass Torture

[Big Poppa]

This is when pigs fly. When Poppa is a the buffet eating his words. This is a reaction to the market. This is Dargie and GLen and all the guys giving the public what they want. Guess what? They are cool...two band, strings through
the body...mutes (be careful) and slab body....

For those regulars I have always said that I didnt want to do this and that we would do this when we ran out of ideas. We arent out of ideas but there is demand and workers to pay and who says you cant offer it all?

This look like reissues … or a Sting-retro …?? More info please! I’m very interested.

[slucas]

Looks like possibly auction items.

 

[Buzzman]

Beautiful!

If I may ask, when will you begin taking orders for these?

 

[Big Poppa]

[boombox]

[EdFriedland]

Seafoam? Did someone say 2-band with seafoam?

I'm speechless.

 

[T-bone]

Look at those weird round holes on the back of the body!

[SteveB]

Will they be available in sparkle colors?

*ducks and runs*

 

[bovinehost]

Seafoam? Did someone say 2-band with seafoam?

Well, there's a rumor.

I know I'm not the most sophisticated bassist here

Hey, hey, the line forms behind me.

Can't wait till Dargin spills the deets.

 

[rizzo9247]

I give up.

Just when I start thinking about another EBMM, here comes another awesome twist.

Maybe I'll wait another month for the next fab idea...

 

[Dargin]

Some highlights:

1) Strings Through body / bridge with straight string pull
2) Old School large bridge with mute pads
3) Old School hollow saddles
4) Serial number will be located on the bridge
5) We will probably rotate two colors per quarter.
6) Slab Body
7) Compensated nut
8) 2 band eq
9) Old School silkscreened logo
10) We may go with the metal battery cover
11) 6 bolt neck plate with MM logo

More details and pics to come!

5) We will probably rotate two colors per quarter.

Well hopefully I'll be able to save some cash for when you get around to a Burgundy Mist Version

Oh ****. Great. Great thing. Please (!!) make some in inca silver. I had one of the first Stingrays from -76. Early one. It got stolen. Would LOVE to be able to order a new one. Inca silver and maple neck. Matching headstock would be great. The one I had did not have a matching headstock of course but that would look absolutely stunning.....
