Ronnie James Dio Sterling
"Wendy Dio, his wife of over 20 years, announced his death just a few hours after he passed on May 16, 2010.
Wendy launched the “Stand Up and Shout for Cancer” fund in memory of Dio and requested that fans donate to the cause in lieu of memorials. Glam Guitars is one of many organizations that are ready to help.
A bejeweled guitar—with a Swarovski-studded rock ’n’ roll hand symbol—will be auctioned off at Christys, with net proceeds benefiting Stand Up and Shout for Cancer. "

Sterling By Music Man: New Finish for 2010
I do not need another four string bass, I do not need another four string bass.....etc.
This was first seen at Bass Player Live in late 2009 and the good folks at Sterling by Music Man were "considering" it as a finish option. At NAMM in January 2010, it was confirmed that it would be an option on the Ray34. Stop me before I do something crazy. My buddy Pat at SBMM says this finish will be "a Guitar Center exclusive in the USA" and should be in stores around late May/early June.

Earthwood Electric Bass
Many of us have seen or played Earthwood acoustics, even though now that Brian guy from Violent Femmes seems to be buying them all up, but not many have ever seen the Earthwood electric bass.
The County Fair Sterling
This was for an artist, though the name escapes me now. Whoever it was had a friend who did the artwork on an unfinished body which was then sent back to SLO for final clear finish. One of my favorite oddities!
