Why do you like your Sterling? I
love the tone! I went to every music store in Dallas and tried all the
basses and when I played the Ernie Ball Sterling, I knew it was the one.
It reminded me of a Fender Precision , but offered even a fuller
sound,with such great punch and clearity even more so than the more
expensive basses! The neck is wonderful and the action is so smooth.
