I like the Rays ability to have that killer bottom and treble all at the same time so you can get the groove going on the E and A whilst picking the notes out on the D and G (if you can hear it thankfully mine are fine ta). I know its a cop out but it does to some extent depend if your a Flea fan or a MK fan tone wise even if these are the only types of basses either of them have used they lean towards the seperate tones im talking about IMO.
Thankfully Herman has made a good choice and it certainly wont be a terrible slap sound even if there not everyones favourite bass and that natural looks great too,2 band EQ FTW as well.[/quote]
I cant agree with you Pete. The bottom end on the factor is totally killer. When i put my xfactor up against the stingray, the ray is totally blown away. so much so that my mate got rid of his coz of the huge difference in tone between them.
