Hooray!!! My 30th Arrived!!!!!

[cat_empire]

Well its been a bit of a saga (well put azzy) but my first ever EBMM bass has arrived and boy is she a beauty. I have to keep pinching myself to check its real!

First of all i have to say that I have never played a bass of this quality. It has such a rich and deep tone. It even sounds amazing acoustically

To BP, props to you big time buddy!It is honestly so heartening to see that a company refuses to go the way of many big businesses by moving factories overseas at the sacrifice of quality. To have something which is obvious such effort has gone into really does make me feel good.

I can tell right now im gonna have alot of fun with this baby, so you might not see me on here for a while


CHEERS!!!!!

PS Now you all have to comment on how beautiful it is

PPS Sorry for some of the photo quality. My camera isnt that great and im no photographer by any stretch.

What in the HELL is that beautiful bass doing in a F*NDER box!?!?!?!?!?!?!




Congrats buddy. Today was a good day for both of us.

 

[Rod Trussbroken]

Gongrats. I can see you're one happy Bass Player

 

[cat_empire]

I dont know, when it arrived I was a little nervous, thinking, ok, why the ^$#% have they shipped me a Fender!!????

But i opened it up and it was all good

yes i would say a very good day for you and me both

holy crap... i wish i'd had a bass that nice when i was your age. not that i'm THAT much older, but still... i had many years on F*nders under my belt before I ended up with my EBMMs... but good things come to those who wait. ;-) congrats on the bass. one of only a few in Oz, eh?

Yeh I'm really greatful to have such a good bass for my age. Most people my age are still playng yamahas, Ibanez or maytbe if they're lucky a standard jazz or something

and i dont know how many got shipped to Oz, but i would suspect it was only a handful, I have only found a couple for sale over here in stores.

congrats dude... i was looking at the first pic and i agree with the dog going wtf?! a f*nder?
i know how u feel.. im pretty sure i felt the same way wen i ripped open my cardboard box to expose the dark red leather of the box

 

[todd4ta]

congrats on the 30th

The f*nder box was a probably a ploy to make sure no one would try to steal it enroute.

 

[midopa]

oooo looks dead sexy. congrats!

Blasphemy I tell you, sheer blasphemy

 

[cat_empire]

i feel like i should also thank my parents, without whom i would not have this today.

When i started to develop carpal tunnel i had to quit my job in a kitchen to continue playing bass and since then have not been able to find further work. My parents took pity on me and so decided to ploan me the remaining money to get it.

I will pay them back of course as soon as i get the money, but I am extrmely greatful to them.

I've been sitting in my purple room, playing my 30th SR4 and just now turned on the computer to find some very good news.

I couldn't tell you how happy I am for you.

Great news! These basses are special, aren't they?

Lucky, lucky, lucky we are.

Congrats.

Jack

It's a great feeling having a big cardboard box arrive with a MM in it. Congratulations.

 

[syciprider]

Nice! Hey, the box might be collectible...

 

[azzy_wazzy]

Hey Cat congratulations! Glad it's finally arrived and was everything you anticipated

The saga is now over

 

[midopa]

no


it just begins...

 

[cat_empire]

well i think Midopa could be right, i now have serious G.A.S for a 4HH Bongo

 

[Aussie Mark]

well i think Midopa could be right, i now have serious G.A.S for a 4HH Bongo

There's one on ebay Australia right now for $800 starting bid. I doubt you'll find one cheaper downunder.

 

[cat_empire]

damn it!

Well i guess if i had the money i would be getting that one in a heartbeat but seeming that i dont have a cent to my name and im still paying off my 30th, probably not likely at this stage, thanks for the heads up though!

 

[ekb16b]

real happy for ya mate
and your not alone.. we all got g.a.s for a bongo
