Jimryan Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Afternoon all, Does anyone know if a standard MM plate will fit one of these?. Last night I picked one up (gonna be my summer project), but the last owner sanded it for a matte effect and (generously) glued a thumb rest on it too. Hoping to order a new plate but don't want to order one that won't fit. Cheers, James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alyctes Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 (edited) No idea, but I have three miscellaneous scratchplates off 'Ray-style basses, one of which might fit... I believe that none of them is actually from a Stingray, the seller couldn't enlighten me. Having just sold the bass I intended to use (one of) them for, I don' need them. I'll see if I can find them, and if you can send me detailed dimensions I'm happy to measure. I think they are all pearloid. PM me if you want to discuss this.

Myke Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Was this bass bought from Facebook? I was looking at one with a glued on thumb rest but I couldn't pick it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimryan Posted December 19, 2014 Author Share Posted December 19, 2014 Indeed it was. A stones through from my house. Very pleased with it and will be even more so when I get round to modifying it once Xmas is out the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrixn1 Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 I bought one of these: [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SCRATCH-PLATE-Pickguard-for-MUSIC-MAN-Classic-STINGRAY-BASS-4-GUITAR-7-Colours-/191222640452"]http://www.ebay.co.u...s-/191222640452[/url] , which is described as: [i]"Pickguard for MUSIC MAN StingRay 4 Bass Guitar – designed to fit the classic 4 string StingRay models"[/i], and it fit my SBMM SUB Ray4.

JakobT Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 The standard Music Man scratch plate will not fit the SUB. The only alternative, as far as I know, is to have a custom one made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
