SteveXFR Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 My second Stingray shaped instrument has just arrived, a Sterling Ra34. I didn't go looking for one to match my Ray35 but it looks great (I think it does) and it's in great condition 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 (edited) Fitted a white pickguard from Pickguard Planet, really cleans up the look of the Big Al. I also bought a black one as I wasn’t sure but the white looks better. I’d love another one, maybe one of the later ones with the lighter tuners and mahogany body. There’s even one with a solid rosewood neck and a Dargie’s delight but even getting one is next to impossible. Let me know if anyone finds a 5 SSS 😀 Edited October 2, 2021 by FDC484950 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveXFR Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 I've also fitted a new pick guard. The old black one was past its best so I bought a nice white pearl three ply. I think it's an improvement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did photoshop a tort pickguard on it and didn't like it. I think the burst was too light for it to work. It fades in from dark red rather than black.

dub_junkie Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 I had tort on a 90s honeyburst USA Sterling which is the same light burst as on both your Rays and I loved it. Just goes to show if we all thought the same, one mans meat, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, variety is the spice of life etc etc On a side note I’m GASsing for a Stingray 5/Ray 35 again lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveXFR Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 I'll agree with that. If we all liked the same things everyone would listen to Coldplay & Maroon 5 and the world would be a terrible, terrible place. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 So, couldn't find a Starry Night, so went for a Charcoal Sparkle Special instead Love the black hardware with the finish, it's a beaut! It's been a while since I played a regular Stingray, but the specials feel really good. Neck seems slimmer and faster than I remember? And forearm contour feels very comfortable. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a stunner Kev, and looks mint condition 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
