NGD: Stingray Content

[Sweat]

Wow super excited and cannot believe I already have this guitar. Thanks to Sweetwater I was first on the waiting list for a Chili Red Stingray, got the email Friday afternoon and it arrived today So far very impressed, lightweight, comfortable, sounds great very classic and looks cool, hell even the SKB case has a cool factor.

This was the new release that pushed my buttons from the start, now want to try the Cutlass as well

OK so it exists....Pics

Ha! I knew you were going to be the first to get one Keith! Congratulations!

So, how does it compare to some other EBMM instruments? You've had almost all of them, so you should be the authority!

Neck similar to?
How do you like the stainless steel frets?
Pickups similar to Axis or...?

LOL, surprised how quick it came Love all aspects, the neck to me is Silo/AL like and though the guitar is slightly larger it is still very comfortable.

The SS frets are a bonus and the PUP's are very vintage/classic sounding not quite like an Axis,more reserved. Have not has a chance to crank up my current amp yet.

Hell if the Cutlass is close then EBMM hit a home run!

Very nice!

Cool - first one on the block! That chili pepper red really does pop.

Quick question about the bridge - is the new bridge floating or is it lower pitch only like the EBMM Vintage trem (on everything but the Luke that is)?

Nice one Keith!

It is lower pitch only but very smooth, one evening but so impressed with this guitar

Nice one Keith!

Thanks my friend it is a killer guitar, cannot imagine how cool the Cutlass will be

 

[Big Poppa]

I am really proud of both of these guitars...great team effort.

Keith - thanks for the info. I couldn't tell from the photos in the Guitar Player review if it was floating or not since it sits a bit differently than the Vintage tremolo.

I can't wait to try both the StingRay and the Cutlass.

 

[kestrou]

Yeah baby - first on the block!

I seriously hope that these are huge for EBMM! I'm leaning Cutlass, but can't decide 100%... Trying to justify both... Lol

 

[threeminutesboy]

Fantastic Keith! Enjoy it indeed very classic/classy guitar

 

[Gio_Force_One]

Nice looking guitar Keith.
Now i know where the money for the PDN Morse went. Thanks again for the Morse

 

[Gio_Force_One]

I know I really can't decide which one want either. right now leaning more towards the Cutlass

Congrats Keith and BP! Very nice instrument. I REALLY like the price point too! Very affordable in the realm of a new EBMM-quality instrument!
