Thanks to the BC legend that is Ash, I've welcomed a short scale Sterling Stingray to my wee collection It's in great condition, extremely well set up with a low action and well cut nut. It sounds just the way it should, and is great for my back and bad arm. I had one before, but just couldn't the action where I wanted. So that's that itch finally scratched

Just bought a really good, short scale Sterling Stingray from Ash. He's great to deal with, put up with all my questions, and even threw in a gigbag. Delivery was very fast, and his packaging is bombproof. Thanks Ash.

Hopefully, nothing needed this year after this lot. Though Roland/Boss do have a new guitar modeller to be announced at January's NAAM In: Fender Acoustosonic Highway Parlour Guitar Ibanez SR135B 5 string bass Fender Vintera 2 60's Stratocaster Boss GM-800 Guitar Synth Boss GK5 serial pickup Boss GDK-DA convertor for GK3/GK5 Boss GP-10 and GK3 Guitar Synth and Hex pickup Strymon Big Sky ex Short scale Sterling Stingray incoming Out; Fender Classic 50's Strat Strymon Big Sky Origin Cali76 Compact Bas Compressor I'm pretty sure I sold more stuff, but that's what stands out

Me too

I think there are a few, but the only one I've found that was really good was in the long discontinued, Roland VB99. Which needed a GK2/3 hex pickup on your bass

Oh, right. Thanks. I thought it might have some fretless sim

@0175westwood29 What does the Zero Fret pedal do ?

That's the one ! For some reason I was havering between 12 and 16 piece, and I would still be wrong !

ISTR there was somebody on here who had a SR Premium with 12 piece (i think) multi ply neck. I think it was a 2600, or something ?

Switches are eq on/off and three way mid frequency selector Controls are Volume, Balance, EQ controls Bass, Mid, and Treble are cut and boost. The Nordstrand pickups with that circuit is very versatile, but very clear too. Very fast neck with 16.5mm string spacing and 38mm nut. The matt finish is almost velvet-ty Walnut/Panga Panga/Maple top - African Mahogany Body An Atlas 5 five piece neck made from Panga Panga/Purpleheart with KTS Titanium Rods. Bound Panga Panga fingerboard. Looks a bit like wenge, but not as hard. More details to be had on Ibanez's product page

For all my moaning about my original Ibby SR1305 Premium, I've been missing it after I sold it. So, something very similar, but more towards the "Dark (wood) Side". Thanks to Guitar Guitar I now have this SR1355B-DUF Premium in Dual Mocha Burst Flat. It's the same old, same old for me Nordy Big Singles, same 3 band EQ with passive switch, and 3 way Mid frequency switch, but no gold tuners or bridge (which I only think work on some finishes, so yay me !) The matt finish is different for Ibanez. Very warm to the touch. Everything is as it should be, though I'll possibly drop the string height. Incidentally, FYI Ibanez now seem to supply Premium SR's with a reasonable Gigbag, rather than the soft/hard case of yore. I'm well pleased
