    Isn't someone after a dark JV P In the wanted ads? 😁

    Hi everyone Up for a reluctant but necessary sale is my fantastic Ebs Octabass. I'm having work done on my Stingray and need to soften the blow. It's a later black label true bypass edition with the three way EQ for the octave sound. Cosmetically(the labelling) it's a little bit worn but it works perfectly. It's one of the best tracking Octaver I've used and sounds very smooth,clean and deep. I'm favouring my T16 and don't need two octaves at the mo. Comes with free Velcro on the bottom 😁 No original box but will packed well for delivery. £70 POSTED to your door THIS IS NOW SOLD 😁

    I've got one of these! Fantastic cab,I'd have it if I was gigging 😁 Matt is a fantastic bloke to deal with too!

    Hmmm tempted by this! Mexican fenders can be hit and miss though 🤔 The serial number dates it at 2006-2007, I'm sure the upgraded pickup and electronics make a big difference though. Does the tonestyler have a flat/off setting and is the original passive tone still on? 😁
  6. lee650
    I was wondering the same thing! How close does it sound to a good ole P bass with the neck pickup solid? 😁 I'm thinking this would be killer with some flats.

    Very nice indeed!!! I need a P bass in this colour 😁

    [quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1490907878' post='3269036'] Everyday is a school day! How many switch positions does it have? I'm sure it could be put 'right' easily enough. [/quote] It has 5 positions 1- bridge pickup in series 2-bridge pickup back single coil and neck pickup front coil in series 3- both humbuckers in parallel 4-bridge pick front coil and neck pick back coil in series 5- neck pickup in series. I just want to be able to switch them to parallel as per the modern versions 😁

    [quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1490900955' post='3268976'] Isn't the fully rewards position H parallel? Or has it been tinkered with. [/quote] NO mines a 2006 model which is all wired in Series! EB changed it to parallel in 2008,when they introduced the Sterling 5, so musicman must have thought it needed tinkering with 😉😁 it was to differentiate the two models I think! It sounds great,but I want the parallel setting as well.
  10. lee650
    Definitely! Spend a little bit more and get OBBM 😁

    Cheers Mcnach! I'm actually going to get a pro to do it! I have an old Ray 5HH which is series wired (as per the Sterling) it sounds fantastic and really punches through a band mix,however I miss the parallel setting I had on my old sterling and want that option too.i wouldn't try and do something like that myself 😁 I'm also thinking of adding the East MM 3 band at the same time.

    [quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1490864986' post='3268564'] Well everyone wants to tell me that the SUB is EXACTLY the same regarding the electronics, if you can get to the connections on a SUB but not on a Ray then they must be different after all? [/quote] So does this mean it'll be difficult to put a series/parallel push pull on my Ray then?
  13. lee650
    I'm considering getting a series/parallel fitted to my series wired Ray 5HH anyone know if this would be doable? It certainly would give a great palette of sounds 😁
  14. lee650
    That is something very special!!

    He played on an album for Randy Crawford too! My dream gig. Oh and he played for Right said Fred! A great player 😁

    [quote] Didn't realise until I played it yesterday that one of gtr riffs from John McL on "Right Off" was later used as basis for "You're Under Arrest". b [/quote] I wore that album (you're Under Arrest) out in my youth!! Loved Darryl Jones's playing on it 😁

    Does anyone know if the Cog 66 mini does a similar job at low settings?
  18. lee650
    [quote name='dannybuoy' timestamp='1490552092' post='3265911'] Definitely, it would be like upgrading your dinner from pedigree chum to fillet steak! [/quote] Lol cool!!😁

    I've been thinking of getting the VT bass DI for low gain OD with a clean blend and EQ to replace the soul food. Would that be something worth considering?
  20. lee650
    The EHX soul food has the clean blend and low gain drive. I'm happy enough with mine,but I'm still looking for something that does the same thing only better 😁

    [quote name='Dudly01' timestamp='1490485165' post='3265500'] Living overseas and the weight, aside from that, it is a belter! [/quote] I hear you! Weight does seem heavy on paper, however ive never found it heavy as I use a comfort strap which is good at holding the weight. I got the weight from the previous owner,so it might be worth me rechecking! 10lbs plus is usually typical of a stingray 5 though, the price you pay for the huge sound And yeah I know the overseas thing will limit my market, but I worry enough about delivery to the uk Cheers

    [quote name='peterkas' timestamp='1490435738' post='3265099'] I had a bass exactly like yours. It's a stunning bass machine: confortable, with a wide collection of sounds...And the price, my friend, it's absolutely a burgain Good luck [/quote] Thanks loads you're absolutely right it's a great bass and only selling as I have Overwater gas! I may just keep it as I'd not get a better bass for the money. Musicman basses are do well made and sound fantastic (they are very expensive new too)😁
  23. lee650
    Shame it's not the 4 knob or I'd have it 😁

    [quote name='Sibob' timestamp='1490101056' post='3262144'] [color=#1D2129]Swapped a couple of bits around on my main board. Swapped the tuner and Chorus around so I could have modulation after Octave. More significantly I swapped out my COG Knightfall for a COG custom gated Tarkin fuzz.

I love that fuzz!!! Is it similar to a mastatron/wooley Mammoth?

    This is bass I was trying to sell my Stingray 5HH to buy!! Unfortunately it didn't sell 😔 gorgeous bass.
