Bobzilla Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Had the opportunity to have a little play on an indonesian 'Ray at the weekend when buying my new (to me) amp. And I really quite liked it. But I can't find them. Have they become the Sterling by MusicMan Ray 34 range? What about the SUB range of SBMM? Are they any good? For reference, my usual bass is a PBass Lyte Deluxe, and I had a Warwick Streamer LX 5, which I would have kept if it didn't have the extra string. Next bass was going to be a second hand warwick 4 string. Until the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40hz Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 They always were the Sterling by Musicman range. Ray 34's and Ray 35's. Great basses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Yes, but the pre-amp needs tweaking and I've replaced the p/up with an alnico GFS MM pro-plus.

Bobzilla Posted April 7, 2015 Author Share Posted April 7, 2015 That, sir, is genius. And I just happen to be pretty decent with a soldering iron, so more than happy to play about with making the MM2EQ preamp. I might be back for some assistance/thoughts. Any thoughts on putting a side entry jack in? How hard is it, and what to do with the spare hole? I guess you could mount the switch that you have on yours?

ColinB Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 I thank you. I've never tried drilling for a side-entry jack so I wouldn't know about that. The only reason I can see for doing that is if you really wanted the extra hole for a control of some sort, e.g. a 3-band pre-amp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobzilla Posted April 7, 2015 Author Share Posted April 7, 2015 I just hate front entry jacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattmit Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 theres a ray 34 for sale here right now, crazy cheap, you really should just buy it if youre at all interested in them. It's got 3 band eq so side entry jack socket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
