NBD Traded it in and bought it back!

[Pinball]

Yes it sounds stupid but if makes sense to me.

I had a bad case of GAS for a used but pristine EB SR5 fretless so when the price dropped by a 3rd I thought I should grab it and traded in my unused guitars and a bit of cash. I then left the shop happy.

The trade had included my SterlingRay35, which I kept as a spare and used at practises or when I need to leave gear in the car. That was a few weeks ago and I have been looking for a replacement and guess what? The best thing on offer my old SterlingRay35. I negotiated with those nice people at PMT and they only charged me a small amount more than they paid me for it so have paid a deposit and will collect it next week. Come on home baby!

Here's some pictures from the first time-I added the creme guard

Haha what you like?! Good decision though if you know its the one, it looks the biz

It's all part of the master plan !

Great! This sort of thing doesn't make sense to non-bass players. Ignore them.

I can see why you would want it back...it looks cracking

Thanks, I know what I'm getting and that its worth it..

I couldn't believe it was still there, tucked away among the Sterling SUBs. It had to be done as it would have been crazy to leave it there !

Sometimes you need to travel sideways before you can go forwards.

Before I traded it I put the original black one on it so will need to swap it back on so I needed another bass to go with my creme pickguard anyway

I went for creme as thought that a white or white pearl would be too much of a contrast. I like dark basses but had comments that I couldn't be seen at a gig...no bad thing maybe
