OLP Ray **GONE** £300

[grahamd]

Offering my OLP MM2 Ray.

I've modded it with full fat US Ernie Ball Pickup and US EBMM 2 band preamp (the whole control plate, knobs, jack preamp unit), work done by Martin Bailey in Bristol. Cost a small fortune, but it's a great player with authentic Ray sound, in great condition. Also has a brass nut fitted

Looks cool in metallic silver. Strung with fresh Elites

**EDT** now have a case so can post for £25 or collection/meetup reasonable distance from Bath/Bristol

Now this I really like. It's a corker

I only have one question - where does the battery live for the preamp?

[grahamd]

There's a new rout in front of the pickup for the battery

[Delberthot]

Cool. I had something similar planned for my BB1025 to make it active with a Stingray pickup and preamp before I decided to go for the Sterling

[jassbass]

Love the look of this

[grahamd]

It's a great bass, that's had a lot of TLC. Tempted to keep it and do a defret 😃

[grahamd]

Bump

[jassbass]

Is it 2 band eq? Thanx

[grahamd]

Yes Jassbass it's the classic 2 band EQ. Vol/treble/bass. Have sourced a case locally so will now post for £25

[hairychris]

Very tempted. I don't own a 4-string, and the full Stingray electronics at this price is pretty rare!

[grahamd]

Been getting my funk on with it today!

[jassbass]

Does it come close to stingray sound?

[grahamd]

For sure, it is the stingray sound

[jassbass]

Any vid sound footage?thanx

[Deedee]

That's gorgeous. I'm supposed to be selling gear and things like this just keep coming up to tempt me! Great price, GLWTS

Sorry I dont Jassbass. So a large part of the Rays distinctive sound comes from its unique pickups / electronics and pickup placement, this has all those things and sounds like a Ray is all I can say

Thanks Deedee its pretty bargainous if I say so myself!

[Mudpup]

very nice - looks good in the silver........

[jassbass]

I'm very tempted with this

[grahamd]

Lots of interest, still here

[rock steady]

I'm tempted too. What is the weight, please?

[grahamd]

No scales I'm afraid, but average jazz weight, I'd say 9 - 9 1/2 lbs

[Delberthot]

I'm still interested in this but can't do anything until my Yamaha sells unfortunately.

Can I ask, why the refret? Are they worn down/ valleys? and/or uneven?


Thanks!

[grahamd]

Defret, as in make it fretless 😃 frets are in fine condition
