Vacation Ruined

While on Vacation, I received a call from the music store my Buttercream Stingray had arrived. Now I'm sure all of you can relate to what that does to a person, even while on vacation. That's all I could think of. Here we are, cruising the canals of France, drinking Cognac in Cognac, and all I'm thinking about is the bass.

At first I was pissed. Why in the world would I be thinking about that bass when I'm in such a beautiful country. But then I get home (to late that night to run out and pick it up). So yesterday was the day I was able to bring her home.

All I can say is "WOW!!!" That's one hellofa bass you built (and I've had a few stingrays). The finish is drop dead gorgeous, the set up could not be any better (hell, I haven't even tuned it yet), and the neck - oh the neck. I have never felt anything so smooooooth.

So even though you ruined my vacation, I now feel my life is complete.
