That was a first.. any back story on this? Curious! --J 811952 Senior Member Username: 811952 Post Number: 660 Registered: 10-2003 Posted on Wednesday, February 08, 2006 - 7:20 am:    Stanley had at least 3 of them. They (Ibanez) came to a show and measured his brown bass, then the Ibanez basses showed up at his house one day. Late '70s I think, and they're pictured in the foldout of one of his live album from '80 or so, along with his Alembics.

Stanley had quite a habit of appearing in ads for many manufacturers. I guess it's easy to get used to all that endorsement money and free gear. (Message edited by rami on February 08, 2006)
