Just a funny little story here....

Last night I ordered a pizza for delivery to my house. I had been playing the honeyburst 'Ray, and when I stopped to go do something, I propped it up in one of the chairs in our living room. In the meantime, the pizza girl knocked on the door. I opened it, took my pizza, and while I was signing the receipt, she suddenly said, "Oh my god, whose bass is that?" I realized that she had a perfect view of the 'Ray from where she stood outside the front door. I told her it was mine & she said that she loved it! She asked what kind it was, and I said, "Music Man Stingray." She told me she had a Squier bass, and then she said about my 'Ray, "That's one fine instrument!" I thanked her & then went to enjoy my pizza.

In the almost 2 weeks that I've had this bass, I've gotten more compliments on it than I've received for any other musical instrument I've ever owned! I'm tellin' ya, honeyburst is pure magic!! :D

HoneyBurst/Rosewood is one of the all time greatest MM color schemes EVER.
Slap a mirror PG on it and shine it up and there is nothing hotter.
I first saw that color combo in a bass player add in the mid '90s. I think the band was the Brand New Heavies and after seeing it, I went to guitar center and said this is exactly what I want. 9 years later it's still the hottest sh!t...infact, it's my avatar!

For some reason, I was thinking the story was moving in another direction. At least it usually does in all the movies I rent.:p

Mmmm. Pizza AND girls. Good combination.

BTW -- do you know how to get a drummer off your front porch? Pay him for the pizza...

I know a couple of "movie" producers who might be interested in buying your story.
