FedEx house arrest...

[smallequestrian]

My Golden Bongo was waiting on my doorstep when I got home from work. Even though I live in a shady apartment complex, you could not see the box from the ground. The only person who might have seen it would have been my neighbor who is a good guy. But it got there in 3 days so whatever...

Well I checked the FedEx site one more time and it said it was delivered! I went to to the back door... nothing! I opened the garage door and BOOM it fell in! Bastages! And sent no signiture required.... anyway here she is! And it was in tune! Plus this is the lighest bass I own... I'M IN LOVE!!!

Better pictures will follow, once I get her cleaned up.

You guys will have to take my word for it - picture to follow...

Later!

Doesn't look like a beater to me. It looks great! The Abalone 'guard is perfect.

Yeah it looks far better than the eBay pictures, one nick on the back and one nick on the back of the headstock, like new every where else. It's a keeper for sure!

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL.. what a score brother!

definitely not a beater.

What a great way to end a brutal work-week!

No lines this time around - everything is perfect. Bass needs a bit of time to warm-up - been on the truck all day and it's in the 50's here.

Gonna break-out the TI's that have been sitting patiently on my desk since the last go-round in August! Quick tweak of the most-wonderful-wheel and I'm playing all weekend long!

Congrats Chuck! Everyone should own a Sterling!

ya know, i keep looking at those pics and ... i dunno, maybe im not so scared of matching headstocks.

Antnee, looking forward to seeing some pics of that beauty!

That is one good looking backward Sterling there. Awesome is a bit understaying it.

Right purdy is what it is.

Just got back to the office and read all of this thread's today stuff in one blast. Better than a novel!

Congrats on the pretty bass.

 

[Bill]

Yeah, this thread has made me laugh like a fool! Congratulations to both of you!! Beautiful Sterling, Chuck!

There are 3 types of FedEx deliveries: Regular FedEx, FedEx Ground, & FedEx Home......all 3 are seperate trucks. The Dell was probably Ground & yours is probably Home.

Hey BT ~ lovin' that TransGreen Sterling on your av! A rarity to see.

 

[Psycho Ward]

Well, I've had a chance to play the Sterling for a while now and here are my personal first impressions...














GOD ALMIGHTY! WHAT A GREAT NECK!!!



I'll have more impressions later...

 

[Big Poppa]

I kind of like that neck too!

 

[Psycho Ward]

BP, the Sterling is a classic... you are the God of Bass! Thank you sir! I'll be ordering a new one soon. But God bless America, what a fine instrument!
