Yeah I must try flats on the next one
I will more than likely get another soon but the price tag means it needs to be the one and only
it is the tone I have in my head, that Flea mid grunt (i know he played Modulus etc also). Its so addictive. I will find one i can play.....
Yeah been there done that, plastic ramp, worked OK but not quite natural. Zero mod thumbrest was same. Maybe an angled tug bar like a Fender might be the ticket?
I'm used to anchoring thumb on neck pickup of jazz.
I'm right there with you mate. Love everything about a Stingray except playing one.
really want one back in my life as I love the tone. Might get an SR5 for a Low B thumbrest
HI @40hz
thank you so much for your info, this is why I love basschat.
Agreed on the "mods", plan was to tell him to keep the extra pickup etc and offer based on that. I'm in Europe so import tax won't be issue.
Thanks again
Michael
Sorry, specifically meant this one.

The front pickup thing is an abomination so would be going stock MM. Also has upgraded obp3 pre and Delano (upgrade?) pickup.
Thanks
Hi guys,
So there's a nice Fleabass 5 (my dream bass :)) on reverb at minute. Wondering what everyone's experience of the bass has been? Heard varying reports (sounds great, too sterile etc) and how it would compare to a Stingray 5?
Thanks
Mick
Didn't realise they had 21 frets!!
E octave on a fender jazz. Amazing.
They should really bring this on as standard, I love 24 frets but could live with 21.
That bass is a weapon, GLWTS
