That is the most gosh awful looking thing I ever seen. (my opinion only, not meant to cause hard feeling toward anyone) surely EBMM discontinued that color.

 

[bovinehost]

Oh, I don't know, some of us kind of like that color.

 

[basspastor]

I will readily admit your picture looks much better than the one on the bay.
It actually could grow on you. I like the wood grain protruding. I really am sincern about it lookingmuch better.

 

[cgworkman]

I, for one, like that color. I wish they still offered this color. Oh well...

 

[bovinehost]

Heinz the Wonder Bass.

May his soul rest in peace.

 

[midopa]

What haaappen?

 

[bovinehost]

As with most of my other basses, traded away for beads and trinkets.

(Actually, in this case, for a fretless Stingray known as the Vampire Ray. I'll let Armybass Scott explain THAT one, heh heh.)

 

[midopa]

Oh... The way you've been referring to Heinz as of late made me assume that it was burned up in some freak fire accident. ... Maybe I'm mistaking you for someone else. Someone sexier and better on the bass, that is.

 

[bovinehost]

Better on bass? Perhaps.

Sexier? My wife says not.

 

[tkarter]

Bovine all those bongo's and a wife that says that kind of stuff about ya. Gotta be the luckiest bongo beater alive.

[cgworkman]

did you say "beater"

 

[midopa]

fap fap fap

I contacted the seller and asked for clearer, larger pics. Here they are! This bass is indeed the Heinz II Sterling!

Bov... am I gonna see you on this eBay auction soon???

 

[armybass]

Yup I too was fond of the Mustard One...but alas I also traded it for beads and trinkets. Now it sports a Rosewood neck and is in the Golden State...fitting eh.

 

[cgworkman]

What's with these people leaving there basses sitting around with no strings? That's not the best for the neck...
