Modding an SBMM Ray4...the quest for the classic sound on a budget! (Now with Youtube Video!)

Just to add to this very interesting thread and take a mild diversion, I too loved the idea of a Stingray but could never get on the preamps.  Totally me btw.  I stumbled across the SBMM Pete Wentz Stingray which is a passive bass with simple vol & tone controls and the pickup in wired in series.

 

Tried one out, loved the sound and then found a preloved one.  I have since added a ZeroMods thumbrest and now I have "my 'Ray".  I may change the tuners at some point, but it's not a pressing thing for me.

Very cool @ead. I like that a lot. Series will be big and beefy on that as well, I bet…
