Hiya gang,

I have spent a lot of time and money making this out of control, loud, yobbish bass into something quite sublime and very good easy to play bass.
When I got it new the volume and preamp were uncontrollable and I was told that a common mod was to fit the Stinger preamp which I ordered. However it was soldered together badly and wires kept falling off so I gave up on that.

Sooo... I had a word with John KioGon on here and this is what he made for me:

the sub wiring is MusicMan Passive, 2 volumes + tone, CTS Premium 250K Audio Log pots .047uF cap. with a "Jimmy Lloyd Rea signature 4 string MM bassbucker" from Warman.
MM 4 string bass humbucker 13.2k 4 wire overwound pick up

This has made a massive difference! It now has an excellent range of tones and some great thump too. All very easy to control now.

I will also include the Stinger and the old pickup, wiring etc'

Sadly I have now bought two lightweight basses and this is redundant, it's not heavy by normal standards at about 9lbs.

Price is £225, with free postage in the UK./

This bass is a bargain.

Hey, does it sound close to a real deal? I have played FAME MM copy ( musicshop.de) with Seymour Duncan MM pickup and SD 3 band preamp... Wow it was awesome. I just don't think its worth investing in a real Stingray anymore, especially now that price have gone sky high, or so it seems to me...
