Newbie with great news!

[cecilthediesel]

Hi,

I was a lurker but I have plunged into the forum. You guys seem great!

I just found out that my New SR5 is ready to ship.
She is white with matching headstock, rosewood and torti-shell guard.
I went ahead and splurged for the piezo option.

This is going to be my second Stingray. My first is a fretless 5 in DESERT GOLD!
That bass is the KOOLEST thing ever. It was a suprise gift from my wife!

I was just explaining to a friend today that Ernie Ball basses are considered "classics" just like the fenders.

Here is a link to my group.

Looking forward to making some new friends here on the forum.

Welcome indeed! I know I really dig my dualH Bongo5 in DesertGold but a fretless SR5...!!!! that has got to be the bomb--o......

 

[cecilthediesel]

aw...

Yes,

The wife does get 5 stars for the thought and careful consideration.

Guess she got the idea since I hadn't changed the screen saver in a month or so....

Have to try that trick guys and let me know if it works.

She also understands that tax right offs help come April....



Glad to be out of the dark....

Welcome to the forum. SR5 in the avatar gift from my wife to me. That makes em special. My SR5 is young it still has teeth.

Yours looks good. You still play it with the hang tag on it?

Enjoy it here.

speed bumps.....

Nah....

I took the tag off after I drooled on it for awhile.......


I use this guys for my jazz gigs and have it strung up with a high C.

Really helps since I play in a trio and have to play lots of melodies.

The drummer says it is his favorite sound out of all the basses he plays with.

Must be the TI flats.

Funny... I was thinking the same thing!

Scoring points already!

TI flats were created for the SR5 me thinks.
