Ode to Sterlings

[maddog]

Iambic Pentameter to Haikus, all you Sterling owners throw out your best poetry. Lets hear it!

 

[GassieBall]

Music Man Sterling

A neck sent down from heaven

Fender says goodbye

 

[mbgreene]

Music Man Sterling

Hawaiian Shirts are Stylin'

Oh, you meant the Bass?

 

[bovinehost]

Sterling Haiku? You mean the guy?




Biff said 'Build Bongos'

Internet wankers scoffing

Dave LaRue said yes.

God, Jack, that's great! hahahah

 

[adouglas]

Okay, so it's not Sterling poetry, but....

Bongo mind control
It cannot be resisted
I am a zombie

 

[Fuzzy Dustmite]

There once was a man named Sterling
A master at martini curling
Build a bass with positions three
And name it in honor of me.
That should set their propellers a-twirling

 

[Fuzzy Dustmite]

And so it was said, in between hiccups
Make me a sterling, but give it two pickups
Make them both humbuckers
That oughta show them f#ckers
And cause quite a few Guitar Center stickups

You may play jazz with great precision.

You may stand upright in the doghouse and pick your grass blue, it’s your decision.

Or play real loud and shake a wal.

But give me my Sterling; it can do it all….









OK, I’ve only had one beer; I’ll come back after five and try this again.

Troublemaker!

 

[Steve Dude Barr]

Don't make me break out "Barnacle Biff The Sailor"

 

[TSanders]

White Sparkle Sterling

I miss this one so dearly

Really I had two

 

[bassmonkeee]

Troublemaker!

What the hell did I do?

 

[bovinehost]

You stood too close to that troublemaker, I'd say.

You need to THINK next time, mister.

 

[bassmonkeee]

You need to THINK next time, mister.

Had fun at parties,
My reputation intact.
Then met Maddog. Crap.

 

[PocketGroove82]

ROFLMAO....you guys should move to nashville with all your limmericks and haikus!

 

[Psycho Ward]

OK, so it’s been a few beers later and this came to me…. But please remember I don’t “get” poetry….

There is a man from San Luis Obispo,
Who is old enough to remember disco,
His shirts are loud and his pants are short,
But he made a bass that can sing,
He named it after himself, it’s called Sterling.



Now to drink a few more beers...

 

[GassieBall]

Psycho, that was awesome!!!

 

[SteveB]

Sterling bass guitar
Not as cool as its namesake
But cooler than you.
