We are so blessed

To live in a time when EBMM is at it's prime and making the best basses (and guitars) on the planet.











Somehow I ended up with 100% discontinued colors.

Thanks BP

I really really and really really like the colour on that Sterling 5, it goes so well with the maple board. Nice spread of basses! Congrats.

I feel both blessed and cursed. Blessed with all the EBMM offerings and cursed with not having enough money to buy one of everything that I want!

Man I envy You! What a collection!

P.S. ...I didn't know that we are brothers in arms? I'm talking about this Sterling 5 HS! Really rare color?

They're always the best aren't they?

That is a special collection there. I love the Ice Blue Sterling, and the fretless Bongo especially. Nice work man!

i dont think you should ever refer to your music man collection as a mere collection. its more of an arsenal ready to supply an army of great sounding bassist at a moments notice.

As my guitarist said when he bought his first EBMM JP model, "It's too good."

I'm on my fourth, and I say that after every one

Very nice indeed!

I dig the disco-colours. Let 'em buy black and burst, we stick with the glam side...

I sdo not know if I could resist a sterling 5 like yours with a rosewood board...

EBMM Basses rock. period. And i too think this is the very best time to buy one. I would't want a vintage 70ies ray over a new one, and i think that's a pretty good sign.
