Ashborygirl Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 That is astonishing, Dave. Out of my price range but, by god, I'd love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

budget bassist Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Not to piss on your bonfire, but I'm pretty sure any of their basses could be custom ordered with a roasted neck ( I could be wrong). Very nice bass though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

budget bassist Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 I think I've seen a couple over on the EBMM forum, but yeah, pretty rare. Any EBMM bass with a roasted neck is pretty rare in fairness! None of the newer non-roasted necks have figuring like that either, beautiful.

MM Stingray 62 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Wow what a bass that's got to be the best neck I've seen on a stingray classic. And with a ebony board it just doesn't get any better than that. This won't be around for long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
