Old Horse Murphy Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Guys I need some help from people far more technically-minded than myself I was lucky enough to buy Nologic69's (Mario's) Stingray HS from him this week. The bass is amazing and easily the best Stingray I have played. It is however fitted with one of John East's Musicman Preamps (a 4 band one) and while I'm an admirer of John's excellent kit, I want to restore it back with the original preamp. I opened up the cavity last night and honestly would not know where to begin!! I'm okay with a soldering iron but my expertise runs to being able to rewire a P Bass pickup and change the occasional pot Any help or guidance would be gratefully received Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ou7shined Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 I know I'm just being an ass. On a more helpful note ~ nip down to Maplin and pick up a desoldering pump (if you don't already have one). You my get some good intel' from the pics [url="http://musicmanbass.org/mycustompage0019.htm"]here[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
