So she’s strong as well as talented, hate her…….

Pretty much like Slash with his Les Pauls, a sig version of a copy, nowt wrong with that imo

You might need to add in some lows or/and low-mids but assuming it’s not a really loud band I’d think you’ll be fine.

Yep, was just part of the deal of being a bassist, Trace, Peavey, Orange etc all extremely heavy but that’s what was available.

I had a Precision with PF fretboard for a while, to me just felt like rosewood. I don`t like it when it`s light and streaky but that`s a visual preference, soundwise and playability wise no issues.

One of the best Precisions out there, forget for the money, just one of the best out there.

It`s amazing how far bass gear has come isn`t it. Way back when that weight was pretty much the expected, and whilst - imo - it probably sounds a lot better than the lightweight gear, it`s great we have the option nowadays.

Worth checking out the Vintage V4 basses, especially the Tony Butler Sig (providing you like black/maple of course). They`re great basses that punch far above their weight.

It’s a shame, the Northampton branch which I used to go to was excellent, had good service from them over the past 15 or so years.

Resultmungus!!

I put one on a 5-string Precision a while back and it did tighten the string up and make the B better.

Yep, when I`ve had Stingrays I`ve used gauges like 45-100 or 50-105 to balance out the low/high thing, and nickels to get some warmth and low-mids into the equation. I love the playability of Stingrays but I can never really get them to sound how I want - which is me being a fool as I just want everything to sound like a Precision.
