Johnny Christ Avenged Sevenfold Custom StingRays

[hankSRay]

Hey I just watched the Avenged Sevenfold Video for "afterlife" and noticed their bass player is rocking out on 2 custom looking StingRays. The first one is like a silver to black burst with matching headstock and the second is an all white Ray with black hardware.

They're both friggin awesome lookin, anyone from EBMM have some shots of these?

Oh and here's the link for anyone interested in checkin them out.

A silverburst 'Ray???

i saw both of those stingrays last november when i saw them live...one was a silver to black burst stingray and the other was an all white stingray including back of neck with black hardware and some funky design in place of the pickguard...sounded like a stingray though...i was so jealous of the white stingray

 

[rhythmCity944]

Afterlife is my favorite song on the new album by the way...I love all their stuff though, aggressive and progressive

I have a silverburst 'Ray..... well it came from Silverburst anyway

 

[RocketRalf]

Cool! Both the basses and the video

That's pretty nice, but he probably bought the ray and got someone else to do the custom paint job.

Also i thought i'd post a capture of the silverburst bass for anyone who wants to see.

 

[rhythmCity944]

the head stock is matching on the silver stingray too

 

[Psychicpet]

wow, silverburst.


who'd dig that?

I know that EBMM has done custom paint jobs like that in the past for artists. I'd guess that EBMM did it, but I'm sure BP or someone will chime in.

Great playing great tone great lookin bass!

 

[oli@bass]

I absolutely positively want that black hardware on the DG SR4 I have on order!!!!

Who'll have I to bribe?
Kevin? Dargin? Big Poppa?!

 

[Lynottfan]

The white one, very nice, I would really like a White Ray ala the Larry Graham Moon's, all white including the neck and fretboard, with gold hard ware, sweet!

We actually did do that here at the factory for him

 

[Lynottfan]

So could you do me the all white ala Graham style I mentioned then?

I think you'll have to have some sort of record deal to pull that one off.

i was drooling over that white stingray last november when i saw them live. i just loved the black hardware on an all white stignray (except the fretboard)...i'm seeing them again in a couple weeks for like the 6th time in 5 years and johnny has always played musicman basses though. A SUB, then sterling, and i think i saw him playing a 30th about a year ago...great taste in basses

Ah sweet, didn't know you guys did custom jobs.

 

[Smallmouth_Bass]

Yeah, they do it in their "custom shop".
