Bass Culture Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Slightly smaller and (presumably!) lighter body too. I loved mine when I had it; mind you, I am a bit of a short arse... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkstrike Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 (edited) 22 fret neck, with a thinner profile, rather than a Stingray's 21 fret thicker neck. Smaller body, of course. A ceramic magnet pickup, rather than the Stingray's alnico magnet pickup. Edited August 24, 2010 by Darkstrike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
