Mine arrived a couple of days ago so have had little chance to get to know it yet. First impression is that it is definately LOUD!

Hello Basschatters, I am looking to replace the scratch plate on my recent Fender Precision, can anyone recommend a mail order company that does original Fender parts please. All the best, BYB

Thank you all very much for taking the time to reply in such detail. I can't digest it all at the moment cos I'm meant to be working and only sneaked on here to see if anyone replied. Thanks once again. BY

Hi guys, I am an old bass player who has returned to his roots and is looking to buy a new bass. When I was a kid, all I ever wanted was a Precision but could only afford a copy. Now I am playing in a band and fancy something with a little more presence than my Yamaha RBX I started to look around. I quickly fell in love with a 4 string Stingray 3-EQ and thought I would compare it against an American Precision only to find the Precision just didn't feel 'right' for me. I would love to buy an older cherished model but will probably end up biting the bullet and buying new cos I'm scared to buy a dud. Does anyone have any advice on models, pickup configuration or just anything to 'look out for' when buying a Stingray please? regards, BY
