Mine was about the same age then. Underwhelmed is very accurate, if a little understated. I recently acquired an Ibanez ATK300, and it honestly gives me everything I wanted and then some.

I wouldn’t say ‘hate’, but have been very disappointed with both a EBMM Stingray and an Epiphone Embassy. The Stingray was my dream bass for many years and played beautifully, but its sound lacked punch for some reason. I found it was very sensitive to different types of strings and usually not in a good way. The Epi almost played itself, it was effortless. It just drowned in the band mix. (Same thing with a Fender 50s P, the Sting Sig, and its cheaper Squier CV cousin, really.)

My latest order was placed last Friday afternoon. (Simple stuff like strings.) I received the sent notification the same day, delivery due tomorrow (Tuesday). I’m in the EU though, so no customs.

I usually have a thing for white blonde-type paint jobs. But have had the blue one myself a while back. Great looker, great player.
