Only about 2 weeks to go!!!!

[phatduckk]

ahhhh, its the home stretch. In only a couple weeks i will have my HS Sterling.

I'm very proud of myself for not going insane during this waiting period. I have no idea when I ordered it but it was at least 6 months ago, hell maybe 8? dunno, don't care! I will have it soon

Now what do I name her/him? Hey Dargin, can you check to see if its a girl or boy real quick? Is that on the build sheet? LOL

I'm in the same boat Phatty, a couple of more weeks on the ButterCream Bongo 4 and a little less on the CAR Bongo 5. LIFE IS GOOD!.... for now.

 

[maddog]

Congrats Gentlemen. Glad to hear y'all will have basses in hand soon.

 

[Figjam]

Long wait, but im sure it will be more than worth it.

 

[Tom F]

Speaking from experience I'll say that

a) The wait sucks

and

b) it is totally worth it.

the last couple weeks are the worst!

 

[82Daion]

Well, now that the Bongo will be here in less than 2 weeks, I don't know how I weathered the wait. But I'm sure that it will be worth it.

I'll probably develop a nervous twitch this weekend, though.

What he said.

Hang in there Phatty!

 

[phatduckk]

ya know ... im a really impatient guy but the wait wasnt that bad; especially considering what im getting. i ordered a bass before it existed with the exact specs i wanted. i'll wait for that

the only reason im a bit twitchy now is cuz i should have the bas sin less than a month.

 

[Dr Stankface]

Hell, i'm not putting in my order until next month. Imagine my wait now.

Nice thought huh? i get antsy for my bass every now and then.

Just noticed your sig, you have 2 sterlings on order? Sweet. You'll have quite the family there, every pickup combination Next is a HP

But lemme get this straight, 4 sterlings?

 

[bovinehost]

Arin, you ordered on 31 October!

You have been extraordinarily patient....and who knew the dual pickup Sterlings would be the last off the production line?

 

[copperbass]

Waiting for a bass reminds me of something my father always says: "I don't mind accidentally hitting my hand with a hammer because it feels so good when it stops hurting."

I found out a little secret about Arin that I have decided it is time to share with the rest of the board. You see, he's a stalker. He's been stalking BP for quite some time. A restraining order was finally placed on him, confining him to the Bay area. So he devised a masterful plan in which he keeps ordering new Sterlings in hopes, one day, the factory might goof, pack BP up and send him to Arin. I just pray that they poke some breathing holes in the box when that day happens.

 

[tkarter]

Craig your father must not have had very many fun things to do to have figured that one out.

I am lucky I have never waited very long for a bass.

me ... well, i didnt know but i assumed that somehow, with my luck, they would be.

but im amped. honestly ... im not famous or anything but id i ever got to the level where i could have my own sig bass it would be the HS Sterling (except it would say phatty on it somewhere). so im a very happy boy.

plus, the whole starting my own company thing kept me pretty busy during most of the waiting period.

hey jack ... was oct 31 the day i ordered from you right? my order for the HS was placed by Doug the minute the EB booth opened at NAMM ... technically the first one ordered. so i guess ive been waiting longer than anyone else alive, ever. LOL

 

[phatduckk]

But lemme get this straight, 4 sterlings?

yup ... i already have a blue dawn and a Butter creme. the HS in medallion gold is almost done, then the HH in spah. black will follow that by 4-6 weeks (soemthing like that)

only bummer is that I wont have the HS in time for my Emergenza festival gig this friday ... but whatever
