This is more fun than suffering all alone.

Keep in mind we have another six months or so before we get even an announcement, much less an actual bass.

And that I really know nothing.

Pre EB 5 How about a picture of this? Ive never seen one

Unfortunately I have.........When I was first looking to trade my American Deluxe Jazz for a Stingray 5 in 2002 someone offered me this bass...I declined.Ended up with my 2001 Black/Black/Maple SR5 which i'm still rocking to this day........


Doh!!!!

I apologize if this belonged to anyone on the forum but I had to show it......

So BP the hint is a blank post. I guess that means it's a white SR5.

You gotta give us more info that way we can arrange our finances to be ready for it! If it's not for us then we can stop holding out and start splurging on existing models that we want!

Ouch!

I'm all for personalizing instruments as long as the end result is not a frankenbass.
