[quote name='The_BassCentre' post='475102' date='Apr 29 2009, 02:16 PM']We've now got our hands on them and they're actually much better than [i]we[/i] expected! The tone is somewhere between a Jazz (bridge pup) and a MusicMan, very nicely put together and the tone control has a big effect on the sound. The necks are fast and the pickup is very responsive. All in all, it's a very playable bass.[/quote] What are you charging for them?

[quote name='phsycoandy' post='475099' date='Apr 29 2009, 02:11 PM']You alll know what they are, but pictured together at last, Ahhh.........[/quote] Nice Westfields

Updated list. With ML666 Matthewsanchez Paul S Clauster I think that's all DJ150888 I'm quite happy to let you borrow it but I think the postage could be more expensive and therefore not worth it, up to you though. New Map Distance 557 Miles

[quote name='Crazykiwi' post='475059' date='Apr 29 2009, 01:36 PM']The neck bolts on my Stingray appear to be M4x45 raised, recessed, countersunk wood screws with a oval philips head if thats of any help?[/quote] Very helpful, cheers buddy.

I am just finishing up my [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=47678"]Stinkray project[/url] and I have realised that I have misplaced all of the hardware screws. I just went to Homebase and bought a superscrew set which I can use as a temp fix for the bridge and control plate. Just a few things though: How deep do the screws for the bridge have to be? What size screws will I need for the neck?

[quote name='WarPig' post='474717' date='Apr 29 2009, 12:26 AM']Damn Wayne! You need to open a hot-rodding shop for basses. That looks sweet! Did you find any checkered knobs? (f'nar) I tried looking for some checkered adhesive vinal, but ney no luck.[/quote] Nope still haven't found any If I do start a shop I'm going to call it Bass Coat

I wouldn't touch Behringer with an 80FT pole, I have had some really bad experiences. Couldn't you get a S/H Trace for less than that?

[quote name='stingrayfan' post='474586' date='Apr 28 2009, 09:03 PM']Looks cool Wayne - thought about swapping out the pickup? The Nordstrand one is very good, it's about £70.[/quote] I think it would be a bit bigger than the PUP that's in there so would require routing.

[quote name='Clarky' post='474485' date='Apr 28 2009, 06:56 PM']Like it! Flea should have taken tips from you for his Fleabass Did you have to move to accomodate the nine basses? [/quote] You joke but it's a little true

[quote name='budget bassist' post='474461' date='Apr 28 2009, 06:28 PM']haha looks very punk! how many basses is that now then wayne? [/quote] Nine and apparently my last for a while but I have my eye on a P/J. This one has a nice weight to it, I was surprised by the quality of the wood when I sanded it down.

This is part 2 of the "screw, fornicate, poo sunburst" series. I bought a Stingray copy a few months back from Marcus Bell it was nice but it was Sunburst ERGH!!!! so I planned to paint it green but what with my old house having no room and me having no time I never got around to it until I moved a few weeks back. Anyway it isn't finished but I thought I would put a sneak peak up. It used to look like this. It now looks like this.

Yeah no probs, I'll update the list when I get home.

I've just had a thought, check the whole bass, all you need is masking tape and black paint.

Personally I would go for checkered (as Clarky already said I would) Black or black pearl if not. Tort is the worst pick guard I can imagine.

I have a 1966 Beetle that is in storage so I just use the band van.

[quote name='Soloshchenko' post='473751' date='Apr 27 2009, 09:52 PM']I can see why people are annoyed. Personally I don't mind the design. I think the layout is neat and simple but it's the awful colour options that really spoil a decent design concept.[/quote] You're right they should make a Sunburst, white, natural and a black with tort pick guard they can cater to everyone and get rid of the colours that every other manufacturer isn't making. It's not like some people might like variety and are so pissed off with a lack of colour options that suit them that they have been sanding down and refinishing there basses in there back garden for the last 3 weeks to get a colour they actually like.

I have nearly finished all my bass projects and I fancy a change. Is it possible to make you own amp? If so what would I need in terms of tool and materials? and how much would it cost?
