I may have

Ordered a EBMM Stingray Special HH in Snowy Night. I was browsing SW and just kept pushing buttons. I’ll probably cancel it today but right now, it is a confirmed order.

That looks great, congrats if you are getting it.

I called Andy and told him I couldn’t really justify it and cancelled the order. It really did sound like a good idea last night at the time. Damn, they just upped my credit limit. They have it at $59 a month 0% for 48 months. Shit, I’ll probably get it. The will is strong but the flesh is weak. But the limit they raised it too puts a Harvest Orange or Stealth Black Bongo within reach and makes it affordable. It also puts the Big Chonks in reach (G&L) Good Lord. Part of me wishes they had not allowed me so much.

Oh the Bongo is a beauty in my beholding eyes.

If it were a StingRay would you do an H or an HH?

Personally, I would do an H, not an HH. It’s the original design and it works better (to me) for slapping and possibly other styles. YMMV.

I have a ln SBMM short scale and it sounds iconically MM.

Only H.
But I’d always recommend not buying guitars on credit. Dont get in debt over stuff that is not a must.

Its a first one anti GAS here huh? Quite a party pooper.

In the end, its up to you.

It’s a higher form of cruelty… you can’t almost NOT do it.

It’s like frogs in the pot with the temperature slowly being increased - not a chance in hell :grin:

I know. I waste that much money each month on stupid shit. I doubt I would even realize the money is missing. I have to say I may go with Polar White HH because of availability and I rarely if ever attempt to slap.

Dammit, I pulled the trigger. Andy gave me an additional 10% off and it will be less than $50.00 a month. I intend to get it paid off really quick but I could not not do it! I got the Frost Green Pearl Single H.

My SBMM short scale is Olympic White with a Rosewood fretboard. It’s damn pretty.

:rofl: Thanks, man. I just won an easy bet with myself (as did everyone else on this thread)!

Congrats, @EddieJones. That Frost Green is beautiful.

I don’t know if you already had an MM, but, if not, welcome to the EBMM family!

Thanks…I knew I couldn’t not do that. It was as big a no-brainer as I have run across in the bass buying world. I wonder how I am going to break it too my wife?

Again, have it shipped to your work. Then when you’re home, just casually say, “I’m going to bring in my bass.”

Damn, I did not think of that

Andy also hooked me up with a Ernie Ball strap. He is a super guy. The bass is already undergoing inspection and I will have it by Wednesday.

It’s just GAS Brain Fog.

Act quick. Andy can very probably change the shipping address.
