Members RoboChrist Posted June 26, 2009 Members Share Posted June 26, 2009 They're coming out after Nashville NAMM and they're called the StingRay SLO Special. You get all the options presently offered in the regular Stingrays but with the thinner neck. I always hoped they would do this but I thought after that puny Sterling came out, that was that. This is good news! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 82Daion Posted June 26, 2009 Members Share Posted June 26, 2009 Narrow necks are for sissies! actually, I'm sure it'll garner them a few sales Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Death Hands Posted June 26, 2009 Members Share Posted June 26, 2009 Since the swap on the P40, I'm accustomed to narrower profile again, out of necessity. I'm still cool with broad and finished, though. Actually, there are very few neck profiles that I've played that have just sucked or made me feel any less drawn to an instrument.

Members Kingmaker Posted June 26, 2009 Members Share Posted June 26, 2009 I'm sure they'll use this to justify raising the prices from expensive to 'what the {censored}?!'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Death Hands Posted June 26, 2009 Members Share Posted June 26, 2009 I'm sure they'll use this to justify raising the prices from expensive to 'what the {censored}?!'. They are using the new and innovative NeckTex NEK attachment system, so... expect a 5-6 bill increase. Nah, I'd hope not. Not that I've been intrigued by any MM at all to date.

Members RoboChrist Posted June 26, 2009 Author Members Share Posted June 26, 2009 Word has it that the new necks will be attached via a revolutionary Saskatchewan sealskin binding system, so yes, I would expect they will be sold at a premium.
