This is the oldest pic I've got from back 'round '02. The bass was ordered late '01.

As you can see here, it's much fuzzier these days-

Actually, this is what it really looks like-

I tried to find an old picture of my Stingray from the early ninties but most of them were only paperprints. This is wht I found:

Playing live ca 1993:

Recording in 1998:
see attached file


And this it what it looks like now:

@TAlan: That looks like Black Sparkle :eek: -- if so, then it could be very well the only one in the world in that configuration!

Very cool Thread indeed! :)

For mine fresh photos you must wait until my NY holidays, so my nice maple neck is starting to become darker for sure, ...but nicer too! :eek:

P.S. ...T Alan, this Your Stingray Hp fretless looks soooo damn good that I almost can hear it sounds like when just watching this photo! Real classic man!
When I quit some day this boring commercial wedding gigs, I should really consider about buying something like this in "normal" 4 sting version, and play for my soul! :rolleyes:

Likely...with that mint guard and whatnot. :D

Thanks for the compliment. It's taken all of this decade, but I can finally somewhat do it justice. :)
