I just have to testify and no one wants to listen. Maybe here there is some one who might care.

It's been almost three years now and I still love my fretless Sterling. It has caused me to want something even better, but sometimes I still think that maybe nothing is. Or to put it another way, the Sterling is already more than I deserve, more than I'd ever hoped for.

For those who say it's not fat enough, a pox upon them I say. Put some flats on it, tweak the knobs a little and it oozes cholesteral. For those who say it's not clear enough, phooey says I. Maybe a passive bass would be cleaner on a recording, but out in the real world it'll cut through Geetar Joe's Twin Reverb and ring like a bell. Put some rounds on it and it'll sing sweet and clear.

And the neck is just fantastic!!!

So bring on the two PUpper. Make it even better. C'mon, I dares ya! Though I've never experienced the EB version, the 83 Sabre I have doesn't really make it IMHO. So don't f**k it up this time! :)

Oh c,mon, it's pretty close :D

I bought the Sabre cause I thought it would be a super Sterling. But the Sterling blows it away IMHO. If you guys do that 2 PUP Sterling right, it might just be the first new bass I'll have bought in 25 years. :eek:

I will agree, I love my Sterling. Best darn bass I have ever played. The neck is perfect, as if BP built it just for me.

oh the 2 pup sterling!!!

ive been A vs B -ing my SR4 and Sterling already in order to decide which 2 PUP model i want. I'm thinking Sterling cuz the neck is the best and IMO the string spacing helps out with pick style fast punk rock.

im considering colors too :) maybe ill just keep it real with white on white this time.

avail for order at end of july ish? is that right guys?
