The guy is an absolute saint, I Can't recommend him enough....

    He also did a fantastic job of a fret stone on my Sadowsky and corrected some pesky fret buzz.

    Great service!

    Guys,

    I'm just making the finishing touches to my US Musicman Sterling HS/ 70s Stingray hybrid. The "Stingling HS Classic....."

    Nordstrand MM4.2, SGD 70s replica Musicman 2 band preamp, custom 5-way switching (giving it the Sterling/Stingray hybrid-ness) giving me Parallel H (for the classic 70s Stingray tone) Coil's 2 and 3 in series for some serious meaty sorta P-bass tone, Series H (for the classic Sterling sound) All coils and Single coil soloed...

    It still has some more grounding to do and a tidy up in the control cavity, but it is sounding IMMENSE. I'll post up some clips and pics soon :)

    Sold Asmo my Warwick $$ SE. Quick payment, clear and prompt comms and he even paid extra without fuss for the shipping when it ended up costing more than I originally quoted. A true gent to do business with.

    Rewiring a Musicman Sterling HS?

    in Bass Guitars

    Posted · Edited by TheDaivisch

    Hi guys,

    I have a 2007 Sterling HS, which has a true 2 coil H pickup (wired in Series) and the Single coil with a dummy coil attached to it.

    I only ever use the H pickup soloed with the mids cut almost entirely out of it because I really want a more Stingray tone, and I'm interested in upgrading the Hbucker to a Nordy 4.2. So that got me wondering...

    [b]Is it possible to rewire a Sterling HS/HH in parallel?[/b]

    I have contacted Nordstrand and they really aren't sure how do this. I don't want to bother Musicman as they don't like their gear being modded (or at least getting involved in mods and getting involved in potentially risky/messy alterations, which is fair enough).

    Before anyone says anything, I don't want a Stingray, as I like thin necks, SLO Stingrays are as rare as rocking-horse sh*t and no I don't think MM are too sacred to mod...(I've modded a deified Sadowsky with my own fair hands with great success...)



    Any advice, stories or even better a how-to would be muchos appreciated

    Warwick Corvette $$ SE Zebrano/Ash FS (no trades) - super upgrades

    in Basses For Sale

    Posted · Edited by TheDaivisch

    This is more of a feeler at this stage, but I think I am up for a change.

    I'm looking to sell (preferably) or trade my 2009 Special Edition Warwick Double Buck Zebrano/ash. 1 of 43 units. It is absolutely immaculate, without a ding in sight. No scratches or buckle rash. Regularly waxed and polished.

    It has also had upgrades worth nearly £400, with vastly superior Norstrand 2b pre-amp (with selectable treble frequency - from standard treble to glassy Marcus miller frequency, which brings no upper mids with it when boosted - very useful) and a sweet, musical bass pot. Pickups are tappable Delano MM pickups, which IMO kick the crap out of the MEC units. Just as punchy, but fuller and more organic sounding.

    This is a stunning, amazing sounding instrument.

    Sale only, please.

    Price - £850
