That makes a lot sense. A utility musicman case to house a variety of their basses. Hence why it’s a little more roomy for a four string.

Ah ok. Mine too has a gap of about the same at 17th fret. Probably slides a bit more than a cm. Just wanted to check whether This was normal and that it came with the right case. Thanks both for the replies.

Does anyone own a stingray special 4 and it’s accompanying case? If so could you let me know your experience with the following query please. When the bass is in the case (open) - is there room in the body cavity to move the bass back and forth? I.e. the case moulding is not a tight fit. Would really appreciate people’s experience with this.

So how come there were no videos demoing this bass at NAMM? I would really like to hear this in action a bit more closely.

Must admit I’m tempted by this and fully admit I’m being seduced by the flea aspect, rightly or wrongly. I’ve had 2 stringrays in the past and they were both of the utmost quality and workmanship. Not sure what it fully was, but I couldn’t quite get on with them. Maybe the neck wasn’t right for me and the tautness produced on the strings. Probably being too picky and I’m sure I will regret it one day. So I’m intrigued whether this jazz bass configuration with a MM pickup will work better for me.

Mike bought an Xotic bass off me. We quickly agreed a deal and he paid exactly when he said he would. As a seller this exactly the sort of buyer you want! No fuss and straightforward! But more than it was just a pleasure communicating with Mike. He is a top bloke and like a few other people I've sold a bass too, I will hopefully keep in touch with him. Bass players are the best ;-)
