Who's On First?

I place bets on whoever drops the cash at GC and just buys one

Who will be the first forumite to take physical possession of a dual pickup Stingray or Sterling, hmmm?
I could go to GC and buy one and return it just to be cool...er maybe not cool...just to be an ass more like it.

If you did that, chances are you wouldn't be able to return it 'cause you'd love it too much! :D

na ... i did place the first order but my dealer says my expected ship date is feb 25-ish :(

so i probably not gonna be first.

if i woulda known i wouldnt've palce an order and would just crusied to a GC

But...you play Sterlings, and so far it seems GC just has Sapphire Black Stringray 4 HH's and Honey Burst Stingray 5 HH's. So even if you cruised to GC, its seems right now you would not find a dual pickup Sterling, let alone a SC/H model in Medallion Gold. So cheer up and be happy that you are in the position to be waiting for 2, count 'em, 2 dual pickup sterlings! I mean you could be waiting for a Lefty Bongo.;)

oh im not mad or anything ... i figured that certain configs would run at certain times and, like u sed, the HS sterling is probably not the first config to hit the prod line. so no worries ... but the GAS got me again and i bought a ____ this morning.

well, i've been listening to the Stray Cats way too much lately and I got a raise and an xmas bonus ... so, I went to my local shop and grabbed a Setzer hot rod :)

No such thing as "too much Stray Cats"! Brian Setzer is one of my 3 favourite guitarsits of all time:)
What color did you get?

And shouldn't you have gotten a double bass w/ flames?
