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.

Classic Series: New for 2010





Here are the colors available on the new Classic Series basses.
