Who did you order the Ibanez from?

American Musical Supply (AMS.) They're my go to for most of my gear, or at least we try to use them whenever possible. Sometimes, they might not carry something, like Rotosound strings, although they used to. In fact, after I got the cash from the guy that bought the bass, we went to the bank, deposited the money, and called them up on the phone from the car and placed the order right there and then, Kind of like ordering a pizza. :P

That's pretty convenient. I'm looking at tomorrow for the delivery for the 115 Neo.

Sounds good. 8) The Ibanez shipped yesterday, so it should be here today or Wednesday. I got to look out for it. So we'll both be getting new stuff around the same time, probably.

A little over an hour, and a half, got home with the NEO 115, minus the SVT-212AV. Did you get the Ibanez in yet? If your weather is cold, or it came from a cold spot, you may let it acclimate to your inside temp. before opening it up.

It should come here today (I checked the tracking with it, yesterday.) The weather has been nice here, and not too cold, so it shouldn't be too problematic. It's coming from New Jersey (I do believe that's where their warehouse is,) so I don't think there's that much drastic difference in climates from there and here right now.

That's good about the weather. Here's hoping it shows up today.

It showed up in the late afternoon, yesterday. I've yet to plug it in, but I tuned it up, and peeled off the pickguard plastic. It plays and looks pretty good, I think. 8)

Thanks! 8) I did finally plug it in, and it sounds pretty good. Knowing me, I'll probably get some flats for it, though. Although, the rounds on it aren't too bad. I guess they're D'Addario, like you were saying. Oddly enough, they didn't have the colored ball ends on them that D'Addarios typically have, although they did have the black silk ends, or yarn, or whatever the hell that stuff is.

I might just wind up going with the D'Addario short flats, since AMS actually carries those, if I decide to get them, since sometimes it's a pain in the arse to try and find Rotosounds online, and AMS is just easy to deal with. Maybe a change might do some good, anyway. I could always go back, down the line. It's not like I'm married to the damned things, they're just strings. :P

They do also have Labella strings, which they got in fairly recently, but those are little more expensive, so I do have to consider that, as well.

You may consider playing the stock strung strings to see how they play once they stretch out.

Yeah, I'm also going to be doing some recording with it this evening, I think.

Well, I did some recording last night, and although it sounded pretty good, I think I'm going to go with the flats. They're just less noisy, and feel better to me.

Flats are a good choice. 8)
