Hello all you Ernieballer fans.
Started watching this forum a month or two ago, and thought I would join.
To give a little history: I started playing guitar about 30 years ago. Alot fenders and gibsons. went acoustic with taylor. Got into banjo with stelling and learned mandolin. To make a long story short. I bought an EB Axis and just love it. great product. I was playing with a rock band and we lost our bass. He was really good but I think He wasn't into old rock with old guy's. Our lead guitar started playing bass but I could tell his heart wasn't in it. I was afraid the band was going to break-up so I said I would do it. I went down the music store were I buy all of my stuff and bought a MM SUB 4 stringer active, and an ampeg B115 combo. So I thought to myself bass players were guy's that just could'nt get the guitar going. I thought this is going to be really boring. Still it would be challenge for me just figure out simple bass runs so we could play togather. This is fun. I never thought much about the bottom end becouse it was always there. This is so much fun I went down and traded my SUB for a stingray 5. Sounds great. Now I am a reformed guitar player chuging along on my bass doing what ever I want becouse there is no one to compete with. 1 bass per band.
I think EB makes a great instrument both my Axis and my Stingray. First class and top notch stuff.
PS
I read a bounch of complaints about not getting free strings. EB can sell mine and donate the money for thier cause. Strings are cheep Time is expensive. I have very little extra. When EB starts giving out extra time with new instruments Then I'll put in for that.
Slap me,
