Naptha... hard to find so i'd go with Lighter Fuel... It's refined and evaporates without a residue... or Isopropyl Alcohol
OK thanks @PaulThePlug
Have some IPA handy.

Guys
Looking to clean up my fretboard a bit (as much as possible)
Aware I'd have to go the steel wool route to get rid of dark patches on maple from sweat etc. over the years which I'm not arsed trying for fear of messing up board. Any suggestions for good cleaner to get rid of some of the grime and bring back some original shine?

A stingray that i can actually play. So probably a HH. With jazz profile.

Another stingray. The journey continues....
Be interesting to see difference between the 4s and 5s. @AndyTravis reminds me a bit of yours back last year.

If you love Flea or Music Man basses I did a little montage.
FLEA and MUSIC MAN - 1983-1996
@Bart Funk Bass thank you so much for this information. Great to nerd out....

I always thought Funky Monks was an SR5 as this is what he played in the video of the same name.
My first "real bass" after watching that video was a black SR5 with rosewood fretboard
I've had a number of ray 4s which I couldn't get on with but just snagged a teal 2000 SR5. Can't wait to play it!!

Lol dancing at the centre of the earth

Yeah wondered about that. He was dancing around enough with it

I love the naked in the rain tone!
So grunty and powerful.

Yes!! Thought that.

Even though I've had an all natural 2000 StingRay since 2005, it wasn't until 2 years ago that I found the Excalibur.
It's a 1995 StingRay that had trans-red finish.
I started my adventure with bass thanks to the song "Aeroplane" (or rather the music video, which in my opinion is the best StingRay advertisement in history).
Actually, when I bought this bass, I wasn't interested in red color, so from the very beginning the plan was to repaint it black. The luthier did a great job and replaced the frets at the same time.
For some time I thought that it would be nice to have an all-original black one. However, I couldn't find it in great condition for years. Of course, the bruises resulting from normal use are something I'm ready for when buying an old instrument. All the ones I came across were pretty beat up. I guess people really wanted to be Flea and they were jumping around the stage with these basses and throwing them left and right. It may be easier to find a Pre-EB in better condition
Now it looks and plays like butter!
Agreed on the aeroplane video being best advertising ever. That's the ray tone in a bottle.

Funny that a lot of the iconic album tones weren't stingray. Wal, Alembic, Spector, Modulus and jazz.

SIRE MARCUS MILLER V5 24 FRET
in Bass Guitars
Posted
I hear ya in the horns.
Can't see why 20 is the standard for frets. Good to see more 24 fretters.
21 at least for the E octave symmetry.
