It really is THE most beautiful Stingray 5 I've ever seen.

Okay, maybe we should exclude those Bahama Blue BFRs, but that might come down to subjective preference. To ME, it is just as beautiful as the blue BFRs. Can you believe that TOP? I'm absolutely blown away. Dargin said, "Wait until you plug it in!"

Ah, mahogany tone block, alnico pickup - I can't wait to do exactly that. I'm quivering like a meth-addled weasel.

Big thanks to BP, Scotty, Jon, Dudley, Guitarfondio and TOMAS! You rock, Tomas!

And to anyone and everyone associated with this one, whew!

Pete DuBaldo, okay, okay, I give up. You get your back rub, hon.

Adouglas eating his words...dont think that poppa forgot the carvin photo posted,,,,,hehehhehehe

I spoke to Jakcie on the phone and reminded him that the stuff coming out the door is just so good that even old fat bald jaded guys take note!

Im trying not to give myself carpel tunnel syndrome patting our team on the back.

 

[ernie1966]

A thing of amazing beauty.

How do you even approach that bass to play it? I would think you would have to ask it permission before you touched it.

 

[Big Poppa]

with jack he has to wait until the bass isnt looking

 

[Bill]

I'd hit it.

Congrats, Jack!! You lucky dog...a 30th SR4 & a 20th SR5. I'm comin' over!

 

[Oldtoe]

Whoa!

I think me knickers need a-changin' now.

 

[sloshep]

OOOOHHHH, AAAAAAHHHH

That is a just simply gorgeous bass. EBMM truly knows how to make a beautiful bass without getting too gaudy.

 

[bovinehost]

I spoke to Jakcie on the phone and reminded him that the stuff coming out the door is just so good that even old fat bald jaded guys take note!

Even guys with questionable eyebrows.

Ben says to me, "Can I play it?" And I said, "Ben, I'm not entirely sure I'm going to allow myself to play it."

And for you guys who say, "I hope mine looks like that", I'd say you have a one in thirty shot. The BFR tops are sprinkled amongst the hoi polloi.

I am a fortunate man.

Of the many SR5 20th painted so far, I remember that one rolling out of booth #2 and saying to myself "wow, I wonder who is the lucky one that gets to have it!" Happy for you Jack.

 

[bovinehost]

And of the many people I have to thank for so many things along the way, I thank you, Vontomas, for making me - amongst so many others - so happy.

You do good work, sir. Don't think we don't know it.

Jack
