budget bassist Posted August 28, 2008 Author Posted August 28, 2008 (edited) Nice grain on that I'll have another SUB bass project to show you guys soon Edited August 28, 2008 by budget bassist Quote
budget bassist Posted August 29, 2008 Author Posted August 29, 2008 Not a chance! Nooo i aint chopping that baby up. Nah i've got a blue SUB body coming with a few modifications and an OLP neck, you shall see, it has some potential to turn out rather well i think. Quote

budget bassist Posted September 2, 2008 Author Posted September 2, 2008 dude.... how many knobs? Quote
Jobiebass Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 Bahh, If I had the spare cash to buy new, Id love a 4H ray White Sparkle, Piezo, Birdseye maple neck/board. My red one is the nicest ray ive yet to play though. havent played one as nice yet. Quote
dub_junkie Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 on the subject of white sparkle,this was my Sterling in said finish.I done a deal with wavydavy on here for his Valenti.He sold the Sterling on ebay for £650 last month and its now on the bay at the moment with a BIN of £850,albeit with the original black plate. I'd love it back but not at that price Quote
Kev Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 iv gotta say, i do still like it, just a pity its a sterling not a stingray! Quote
Kev Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 im just imagining putting a graphite neck on that.....nice thoughts how comes you want to sell it?? dont like fivers or just dont like stingrays?! Quote

Would be f***ing delicious! Only trouble is the cost... Love 'Rays, don't like having five strings. Edited September 3, 2008 by Waldo Quote
Mr Cougar Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 Here are 2 of my 3, the third is a buttercream 2005 Ltd which I might sell soon but these bad boys are going nowhere. Quote
KevB Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 Much abused 79ray I picked up, got cleaned up as best I could. Nordstrand PU and J East pre installed, now sports black knobs. Plays OK, fitted with flats at the moment for a thuddier sound. Quote

The natural 'rays look fantastic - especially the fretless. Here's my rather modest 2 band in natural. I only bought it last month, having had a year without a Stingray, and am loving it.

Coupla BC'rs may recognise thier cast off's.... Gotta love em... nice to get them out of thier cases[/quote] I've just spotted the inlay on the fretless fingerboard. What's the story behind that? Is it a limited edition of some sort? Quote
power of ten Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Thanks Simon... yeah love Musicman basses... hard to beat a natural ray.. especially if you get a one piece body, the SR4 and the sterling are both one piece. The inlay on the fretless is a bat outline! and it lights up in red LED, (can never decide if its tacky or cool) not sure of story behind it, but its really well done. The bass is '97, and i got it in 2002 i think, but its not a factory thing, tried to get info on EBMM forums but no luck. Quote
budget bassist Posted February 4, 2009 Author Posted February 4, 2009 Are sure they're one piece? One piece bodies are pretty rare, and i've heard the bookmatching over at EBMM is amazing! Quote
Dubs Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Chances are I'll be back in the MM club on Saturday morning... Quote
KERMITNT Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 this is my tranorange bass which i am in love with plays super with DR marcus miller strings Quote
power of ten Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Dont know that one pieces are that rare in natural finish, look at the end strap button, my fretless meets in a sort of V, and is obviously 2 piece, but you wouldnt know looking from the back...
