Hobbayne Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Just thought I'd report back on the good doctors [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=120115&hl=stingray+bass""]MusicMan Stingray[/url] My guitar tech Had to adjust the truss rod as the neck was in serious need of attention, and gave the fretboard a good coating of lemon oil as it had dried out quiet a bit. The frets didnt need stoning as I thought they might do at first. With the neck now sorted he fitted a new set of Elites nickels 45-105 and lowered the action as low as it would go without buzzing, and finally replaced battery and the big G tuning peg with an original peg. I.ll gig it tomorrow night and see how it sounds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayPete1977 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Looks cool, Where did you get a proper peg from in the end? It may be giving me Rosewood fingerboard Stingray gas..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ernie Ball MusicMan importers [url="http://www.stringsandthings.co.uk"]Strings And Things[/url] managed to locate a tuning peg for me. Played it for the first time last night, absolutely amazing sound! Midrange punch really cuts through! I can see this old Precision player has been converted!!
