Off Topic How many records do I have to sale? ...

[Chrishi]

... to get a custom shop EBMM Stingray?
Johnny Christ (Avenged Sevenfold) got his second(?)
The first was godlyke, a white SR4 H with black Hardware, and painted neck.
The new one, seen today @ Rock am Ring is a black one but not high polish (?) with painted neck, and gold Hardware (Bridge with mutes) and a SUB body (don´t know the english word ^^ without the arm and belly cutaway)
I have never heard such a growl with a stingray. Wow.

How many basses did you built for him? Or is it a secret?

 

[cyoungnashville]

I don't think working in a record store counts.

 

[cyoungnashville]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH!!!!! oh man his nose is bleeding!! olympic takedown.

 

[cyoungnashville]

oh wait, or were u talking to me?? jerk.

 

[mmbassplayer]

He had to be talking about Craig.

Dang... even if my band manages to get 1 million records out there, most wouldn't count as sales (we do pay-what-you-want model, and encourage people to share it via any means they want to). Alas, I wouldn't want a whole lot with a signature model anyhoo - what I have works wonders

 

[Chrishi]

Im happy with my myself-custom-LED-Bass
But black Hardware without buying a Stealth would be great

Is it a firm-secret or do you have any factory pics of the basses?

pfft..You think your actually somebody for selling over 50? I sold over 60, they should have my number on speed dial.

Jimmy... doesn't count when you buy 35 of your own for stocking-stuffers! JOSH

Considering the typical artist's return
on a million-selling record, it's prolly
cheaper to just buy a MM and have a
shop customize/refin it to your specs.

Just connections, i dont think Dave LaRue has sold millions of records and he gets a few custom basses.

 

[mmbassplayer]

I bet Craig has a few under his belt. JOSH

 

[jlepre]

a few WHAT is the question...

 

[LawDaddy]

My daughter got a free Big Al, and she hasn't sold any records yet.

Wait, how does this work again?

When you hit Platinum on record sales, you'll have manufactures on the phone begging you to play there gear.
Its all about product recognition.
