to MM staffs !! LEFTY SR problem !!!!!!

HI,

I have four StingRays from the dealer and one used, total 5 lefty SR .
But I don't have any piezo equipped or limited SR.
Of couse, I know that you make it a rule not to make LEFTY limited or piezo model.
I don't care why, but listen to me.


A week ago, I saw LEFTY LUKE on the ebay that couldn't be made.
I guess it is not the fake. it's original MusicMan instrument.
I know the lefty Luke is not available, but it exists !!
Anyway,


I am not a SR collector.
My SRs have the characteristics their own, so I bought them.
Maple SR4, Maple SR4 with 3 coil, RW SR5 and so on.



I really really REALLY want to buy 30th anniversary StingRay.

You know, you can feel the meaning of the '30th'.
I am 30 years old now, and I am a big fan of the MusicMan and StingRay.
All my band members use MusicMan - 2 JPMs, LUKE, Silhouette .
they all bought the instruments by my reccommend and the quality itself.



I don't need the string-through-the-body bridge.
If you can't build the lefty limited model just because of the profit,
you can make it with the standard bridge for LEFTY.



Please, JUST GIVE the SAME CHANCE to the LEFTies !!!!




I don't need other limited StingRay because the specs are same with mine.

But, the 30th is different !! It comes with Mahogany.

And 30th Anniversary itself is the huge meaning to the MM fans.






I beg you.

Please, Make me a 30th Anniversary StingRay.

If you do that, maybe almost all the lefty MM fans will be thankful to your decide.

oh, I see why they mentioned 'Chuck' ^-^

and I also know he wants the limited or piezo equipped LEFTY MusicMan, because of your jokes.

I think the MM staffs should listen carefully to the Lefties.

there will be more people like me or 'Chuck'
although they doesn't post the complaints on the MM forum.

While I understand your frustration, it's been mentioned before about how expensive it is from a business point to produce left handed instruments. Sterling Ball himself has told us he is left handed (although he has taught himself to play RH). Can you purchase after market piezos for lefties?
 
Of course, I know the difficulty.
So, I suggest the standard bridge.
I think it's the only new hardware for 30th StingRay.

I know there are many left-handed instruments in the ernieball.
at the point, I really appreciate.


But I wish they will build the lefty piezo or limited.
so, I beg them

I am sorry but I don't understand the meaning 'After Market'.
My English is not such a good thing, sorry not to understand your word.

"After Market" - Not original equipment from the original manufacturer but something that you can purchase from another manufacturer to add to the bass.

Oh, I see.

I won't purchase the after market piezo not because of the price but because of the originality.

I like the instrument building skills of the Ernieball MusicMan, so I don't want some body else to tune my bass up.

Well I guess you may have to wait then and hope one day EB adds that option. Welcome to the forum.

Thank you for your welcome ^-^

I can wait for the day when they will add the option.

but the 30th anniversary model has a time limit.
 
Hey, I like this guy!

ShootingRay, a big left handed welcome to the EBMM forum!:D


There's power in numbers, if enough lefty's see the light and start an EBMM buying frenzy I think anything would be possible! (… damn, I sounded a little like Sponge Bob there…)


I started my own buying frenzy I’ve got 5 Balls… now, if every lefty bought 5 basses every 12 months… covert LaRue and Levin to left hand basses…. There must be a way.


Caution this is a subliminal message “Big Poppa, give the lefty’s piezo… give the lefty’s piezo… give the lefty’s piezo… give the lefty’s piezo…”AND “the new two pickup models the new two pickup models… the new two pickup models…”

I'm glad I have my reading glasses on when I read your post!

Also, I uncovered your communist subversive subliminal message Boris!!!

Just kidding about the communist subversive part though.
