stingrayPete1977 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 My first picture of all three Rays together! [attachment=72088:3_Rays_jpeg.jpg] Im looking forward to the spring so I can get them photgraphed outside in the sunlight as the Blue Pearl and the Teal Green really look much better in the flesh.

Hobbayne Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 This is the first Stingray I have ever owned, I,ve been playing bass for [b]CENSORED[/b] years, always fancied one but never owned one, having been a P Bass player. Bought from a Basschatter last month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steverickwood Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 [quote name='budget bassist' post='261324' date='Aug 13 2008, 12:22 AM']Sweet, that lavender ray is interesting I also saw an albert lee with a flamed maple top in pink burst or something like that in my local clown control before it closed down, i'm not one for pink finishes but my god it looked amazing! EDIT: i think it may have been one of [url="http://www.music-man.com/instruments/albertleeBFR.php"]these[/url][/quote] I used to own a lavender 5 like that; lovely bass, and it looked great.

Huntsta Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 [attachment=73831:DSCF0047.jpg][attachment=73832:NewMM.jpg][attachment=73833:DSCF0048.jpg]Thought I'd add my newly acquired Ray to this thread. Its a Honeyburst with flamed neck. Now there's quite a few of them around but this one has, at some point in the past been fitted with a seymour duncan bassline pickup and seymour duncan preamp. I have to say that in a direct comparison with my stock stingray it blows it away. Ray purist may shudder or look on with disgust but seriously I had a revalation moment when I tried this one. Personal opinion folks. Anyway I love this to bits and its a beaut to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duarte Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 That's a beauty! Although I do consider it blasphemy to install Duncan electronics to a Ray ...to me the entire point of any MusicMan is the electronics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost_Bass Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 I think it's fair to give one last show to this beauty before i part him him tomorow. Wonderful bass but at the moment the TRB has the sound i'm looking for... [attachment=73884:SR5.jpg] more pics: [url="https://picasaweb.google.com/106572846091439162015/SR5#slideshow/5571323231261386850"]https://picasaweb.google.com/10657284609143...323231261386850[/url] I know i'll regret selling him for the rest of my life but it breaks my heart seeing it left aside day after day... hope the new owner will take good care of him!
