If I could only own one MM bass...

that medalion gold is scrumptious on a sterling, and for the first time i actually wouldnt mind tort on it

like this?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

STOP with the gassing!

Very very tasty (I like it's name too!) but I've love to see what it would look like with a matching headstock and rosewood board - the maple looks great here but normally I'm not too big a fan of it.

I may have to muck about on paint later and try and tort that baby!

ETA - an auction I had on eBay just finished for a silly amount of money so the saving has commenced!

(Still have to decide on a damn finish though!)

 

[azzy_wazzy]

Okay - newly torted with rosewood neck - courtesy of my rubbish paint skills!

Looks pretty tasty

(Hope you don't mind phatty!)

phatty stop it im jealous. lol. yeah go a rosewood board, itll just make the finish look 'warmer' someone here has the hottest mg bongo with pau ferro board, its not the same but its closer...

I think at the moment MG with RW is definately the leading choice!

.........- I am clueless when it comes to picking the colour. My current bass is trans red, so as much as I love it, I shouldn't really have 2 in the same colour. I would have got a Treacle bass (DG with white ice PG after the cat in my avatar) but whilst that looks great on a Bongo, not too sure how well it'll work on a Sterling. .......

... what should it be?

I am VERY happy with my 1989 SR4, the ONE and ONLY real classic that have stood the test of time among a few others in bass history.

Why do I love it so much? Bird's eye snappy maple fretboard, zingy 2EQ pre-amp, larger but light ash body, IDEAL for slap (sound and layout, with no pickup close to the neck interfering with index and middle fingers' string pulling). This may cause outrage, but I am not very interested in Bongos.

Not going to cause and outrage. There are however a whole bunch of us that do not share your disinterest in Bongos.
