SteveXFR Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Hi. Here's my Ray35. It's been around a bit, previously owned by two other basschat members. It sounds great, feels great to play and looks pretty good as well. The dark colour one is my Subray 5. Also from another basschat member. I've swapped the preamp for a Darkglass Tone Capsule which is a big improvement and will probably put in a Seymour Duncan pickup as well. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dub_junkie Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 ^ that Ray35 was mine for a while. Lovely thing it is too. In fact was tempted to buy it back off Darren earlier this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dub_junkie Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 marleaux62 those are some of the nicest stingrays going. I couldn’t possibly pick one but if I had to it would be the Neptune blue. simply amazing😍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to quantify but just some subtle differences that elevated it that bit higher Keir 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obra Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 (edited) Hey! This is what I was looking for while shopping for a Special, and couldn't found anything similar at the time. Now I had a chance to made one which can maybe help someone decide between ''old'' Ray or Special. No talk, no procrastination just a sound test. I hope you enjoy it 😉.

Shows that the fundamental Stingray sound is right there in both models. I'm curious to know how you recorded them. I'm assuming DI into interface? Or was it an amp/combo setup (DI or mic-ed)? Were external EQ's flat? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the Big Al 5 SSS a few pages about not long ago. They really are amazing. No way I’ll ever sell it, and that’s saying something. If I had to take only one bass that would suit any style of music it would be the Big Al. That sound when you turn all the pickups off and get bridge/middle in series… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagman Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 2002 2EQ Fretless EBMM Stingray Had been looking for a 2EQ Fretless for about 5 years. Finally got lucky.

Bagman Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 I found a defretted one but I really wanted unlined. And a long while back a fretless 5 was in Otautahi would like to have a go on that now. IIRC it had like a switch by the knobs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A cat over here told me that EB no longer make fretless. I had a look on EBAY for Fretless 5. Only 1 showed up (Australia) would be about $6200NZ Not in my zone for something I couldn't play first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagman Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 I've strung it with Chromes. Very smooth instrument. SS RW were good but just too much for me. I don't like the treble knob much. It adds hiss at the high turn as well which it should not do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
