Ou7shined Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Hope you didn't go for the matching headstock. Quote

stingrayPete1977 Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Stingrays are sh*t, you wouldn't catch me playing one You know what they say though, it don't exist without pics Quote
Dave D Posted October 31, 2011 Author Posted October 31, 2011 Oh no!! I thought i'd order this one from stock. I'm too impatient to wait!! Quote
stingrayPete1977 Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 I think I'd get away without the smileys just from my user name and avatar to be fair Needs updating as the Teal SR4 is now a black SR5, I'm going to reinact it when the same duvet cover is on again Quote

I'll post a pic as soon as i can, and make it real Quote
stingrayPete1977 Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Good man, there is an EBMM porn thread begging for some carbon blue pics! Quote
martthebass Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Hate em meself, can't understand why anyone would want to own one ;-) Quote
stingrayPete1977 Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Nah I'd never own 'one' either Mart. Quote

Musicman20 Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 Now im on the hunt for another. Very tempted to order either a HH again or H 2 EQ in the Sky Blue or Tangerine Pearl w/rosewood. Quote
EBS_freak Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 I'm surpised that Sterling himself hasn't been in contact with you to ensure that you are sorted out...!? Quote
Musicman20 Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 Ive got a good contact at S&T now who is going to personally check all order dates, spec, QC, on everything I order in the future, which hopefully should work out. Quote
stingrayPete1977 Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 (edited) My new bitsa Ray5 has a neck pocket that you can keep more than a few fag papers in, more like somewhere to put a cigar box! It plays and sounds great though so I dont care too much although I might have it sorted at some point, makes me realise that its not as easy as people say to just swap the necks as was the issue with your Gareth, I can get it tight but the B runs off the edge of the board or straight but with a little gap, even with a 6 bolt neck you can move it around [u]alot[/u] before tightening into place.

swanbrook Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 Gareth would you not just shop around untill you find one you like on he shelf ? I can see another 23 pages coming. Quote
Ou7shined Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 [quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1320219317' post='1423794'] I'm with swanbrook +1 Gareth [/quote] Me too. I thought you were joking about the whole "contact at S&T" thing. Quote
stingrayPete1977 Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 Yep, Thats not actually a pearloid pickguard you know. OOooohh Quote
