Out For Delivery

[James Hill]

Just checked the UPS tracking and my 30th Stingray is out for delivery! I took the day off from work so I would'nt miss the truck. Pics will follow.

Pretty musical place it's in right now...MUSCLE SHOALS, AL,

Sweet! Please post pics when you get a chance -- there seems to be much variety in the body grain on these basses. That first time opening the case is pretty breathtaking.

PICS HERE

Oooh, pretty!

Steve, I just wanted to let you know it's here and safe in my hands. Also want to thank you for the extras in the case, I really appreciate it. Unless I come across something I can't pass up, all my purchases will go through you from now on. BP you were all correct it is a great day! The 30th really is better looking in person than in pics, probably because the red is so hard to photograph. Steve's pics are the best I've seen and a very good representation of the color. First impression of the sound would be "Massive." The first thought I had was the band Tool, I know Justin plays a Wal but this Stingray just nailed his tone out of the box. I did have to adjust my amps lows quite a bit but that was to be expected. That's all for now, I will get some pics up at some point but I've got band practice tonight and a gig Saturday so I've got to get down to buisness with this thing. Thanks again to you Steve, BP, and whoever else had their hands on this one at the factory.

Tool?

I tried iTunes but no joy. What is this band? What style music do they play?

Congrats on the new bass. Stunning, isn't it.

I didn't know Tool wasn't on iTunes. Anyway, here is the link to there official website. http://www.toolband.com/ One of the best metal bands IMHO.

I saw Tool back in their club days down in San Diego (Opiate Tour; around '91-92)...stood right up front on Justin's side.

That is one intense band! Tight, too!

I don't think Justin was in the band during that period of the band-Paul was on Opiate and Undertow. Justin's first album with Tool was AEinema(sp). I love Tool, they are one of the few "heavy" bands I still listen to. Justin is a great bassist and always seems to play the right thing.

Opiate is one badass CD.

congrats on the 30th!!!

Hey, is there really anything that sends a tingle through your netherregions more than the proverbial "Out for Delivery"??
