My Personal Sterling Ball Tribute

[smallequestrian]

I had my bass shipped to my parents house and it arrived yesterday. Unfortunately I had to go to Austin for business, so I didn't get it till tonight. I had so much to do tonight after I got in town, I didn't even get a chance to unpack until 930ish.

In honor of the occasion, I poored myself some Scotch.

Hmmm...what's inside?

Its a Musicman!

ooo la la...

Thanks for the schwag Steebo.

Sorry for the flash, not exactly a lot of natural light at 10pm.

No flashie, kinda dark.

My Bongos scare things, I have proof...

And here is my personal tribute to Sterling Ball

Two Bongos in his favorite pickup configuration, and of course, one Sterling.

Congrats Paul! Beautiful collection you have there. Let me know if you'd like to trade your fretless for mine for a while.

 

[tkarter]

You have quite a good looking collection. I like the newest one best. It says rock and roll.

Have fun with it. The Single H ones are killer aren't they?

You single H guys are killing me. *Putting fingers in ears* "la la la la la la". I don't hear you!

I can't wait to see that new one in person.

Cheers!

Just got home from playing my Single H Bongo 5. I can't hear you and my fingers are no where near my ears.


Fingers in the ear are only a slight reduction in sound.

Order one. You may feel free to choose the color. But Paul has one of the best colors there is.

IMHO

I'm afraid that abalone has become The New Tort.

Does it work on EVERYTHING?

 

[tkarter]

Ah bologna

[ExLurker]

Man, that is gorgeous. Bet you didnt get to bed till late!

 

[Psycho Ward]

I agree and I'll be calling you today to order an abalone guard for my Bongo 5.

Paul, beautiful bass bro, this Sterling cat is one cool dude fo sure, enjoy that bass!

 

[LisaIs]

That is so cool. We got to experience the unpacking with you. It is like Christmas came early. I wish I could have sat down and had a drink with you and seen that baby get played. How exciting. When I finally get a Sterling I will try to photograph the process too.

 

[Mobay45]

DAMN Paul!

That new bass is sweet!

I like that abalone p/g on both basses, but I think it might look best on the MG. That other p/g is radical on the red Bongo too. I likey!

Coming out to Willhoite's this weekend?

 

[Bill]

Excellent, Paul! Thanks for the photos. Fantastic collection!

 

[TSanders]

Paul, there are just few words for pics like that. Wow, would be the best, and most natural.

 

[Big Poppa]

paul....WOW!

As I've said so many times the single H is just a really special bass. Its is alot like a sports car with the top down....

I got a little nervous when I read the thread title, but Ill hoist one for your new baby tonight!

 

[koogie2k]

Nice bongo's you got there. I have two meself...both double hums.....my "sports car model with the top down" is on order and I am patiently awaiting it's arrival...

Congrats on the bongo....you have a nice collection going......

 

[Psycho Ward]

Well I guess I'm going to have to get me a single H, to hold me over till the two pickup Sterlings come in a lefty (a man can dream can't he).
