Hello, I am new here but been playing musicman since 93. My first one was a trans red alder body stingray4 with birds eye neck. later on i got interested in the other brands but something was just not right.i could not get the right tone , i tried the high dollar stuff like la----d and sa-----y anyway ive come full circle to the tone i keep hearing in my head. I ordered and recieved my SR5 trans gold hs,rosewood board and just ordered a dd2 SR5 h piezo. as you all know musicman instruments quality is far superior than anything on the market.Thank you big poppa and musicman for giving me the best of the best ....... pics soon
