petetexas Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 (edited) Now £280 ! Hi Guys , For sale my OLP Stingray , bought on here a couple of months ago . [font=Tahoma]A previous owner 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 gigged condition ( some dings and light scratches ) . Also has a brass nut and Straplocks fitted , includes a gigbag . The bass has a Musicman logo on the headstock ( not waterside)[/font] [font=Tahoma][attachment=253835:post-20945-0-53022300-1497387443.jpeg][/font] [font=Tahoma][attachment=253838:post-20945-0-89993000-1497387456.jpeg][/font] [font=Tahoma][attachment=253836:post-20945-0-12296000-1497387471.jpeg][/font] [font=Tahoma]Postage extra [/font] [font=Tahoma]Pete[/font] Edited October 15, 2017 by petetexas

Oopsdabassist Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 (edited) Uh oh...I may be getting myself into trouble sometime soon, lemme think about this. edit for question, what's the other hole under the scratchplate, in your 2nd pic? Edited October 11, 2017 by Oopsdabassist
Marc S Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 Never played an OLP - though I have heard they are very good Wish you were a bit closer, just so I could try it GLWTS
roceci Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 I've got a fiver here you're welcome to try out Marc if it greases the wheels of a sale here. They're really decent instruments & do the Stingray sound quite well, even stock like mine is. I also know you're trying not to buy anything atm so your call buddy...
petetexas Posted October 11, 2017 Author Posted October 11, 2017 Hi , 1) The extra hole under the sctatchplate is the battery compartment . 2) They play really well , obviously not as good as a real Stingray . The neck is a bit flatter at the back , but soundwise , compared to my 2016 MM stingray almost the same . This OLP is the reason I went out and bought a MM Stingray...............the sound with 2 band eq is brilliant for me , I could get on with it, but 3 band lost me . Used to have a Warwick FNA 3 eq band , now sold . Pete

[/quote] Ah, you're quite correct roceci - I really am "trying" not to buy any more basses! - Just not trying hard enough I had a rather nice MM before - lovely trans red it was too. I liked the quality and the sound I got from it. Trouble was, it was damned heavy And the neck was rather chunky. I don't mind a bit of neck width - but not keen when it feels wide, and deep... It seems this OLP is fairly light by comparison though I never weight my old MM - but I'm pretty sure it was the heaviest I've ever owned, and felt much heavier than the RW Jazz I owned at the same time....
Oopsdabassist Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 Ah I was wondering about the battery..tnx
benroch Posted October 14, 2017 Posted October 14, 2017 are there any videos of the bass being played? Thanks, Ben
