Sterling Convert 2 months later!

[petch]

Well, it is exactly 2 months since I got my first EBMM. I have been around awhile (think black and white TV) and have been playing bass awhile too. I have tried a Stingray or two and never got hooked. Recently I auditioned a Sterling. I played it, loved it, bought it. A seemingly run-of-the-mill blue pearl/black pg/GC model. I soon discovered that there is no such thing as a run-of-the-mill EBMM! The bass has exceeded all my expectations. I posted a thread shortly after I got the bass exalting its tone, fit, finish, looks, etc. One of the replies asked for a follow up after I had played it a bit more...
Here's the follow up-
I own 3 other really nice basses from 3 really good manufacturers.
I have hardly played those other basses. I mean hardly at all.
But you guys knew that, right?

I know that and I know why too. Don't feel bad about that. I am old LOL I still learn although slowly some times.

Been married almost 31 years and some day I am going to locaate that switch on the wife that I must be swtiching more than once in awhile.

Thanks for the nice replies. I'm diggin' the understated look of the black pg with the blue. I can't do tort with blue, although I dig tort. Anybody got a pic of abalone with blue pearl?
