I picked it up today. I thought I knew how to attach pix, but I'm having trouble.

Very awesome. What pickup configuration? What color? What do you think of it? Spill the beans, man!

OK I'll say it...

No pics = No Bass

Sterling 5HS pix

These pix are not great, but I just got a new camera and I'm going to shoot some more and put them on photobucket. Anyway, the bass is great - very nice - honeyburst, matching headstock, rosewood board, black p/g. I like it so much that I'm going to order a fretless HH in tobacco burst. At first, I though it may be a bit neck heavy, but it's actually pretty well-balanced. I'm used to my old Tobias Killer B (pre-Gibson), which is only 8 pounds. The Sterling is about 9 pounds. I have not played it with the band yet - only at home through a small rig, but it sounds great! Popping is a bit tight, but I'll get used to it. I'm also considering getting a Sterling 5H so I won't have any slap style issues.
