dirgefornovember Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Been very content with my Squier 40th anniversary P and Warwick Corvette for quite a long time but had a sudden hankering for a Stingray that I just couldn't shake. Never tried one before and just loved that sound. This Ray34 came up at a good price on Reverb, just a shade over £500 after some negotiation, and had to pull the trigger. The colour is unbelievable. I love that blue sparkle, and the roasted maple neck is really smooth. Not totally au fait with active basses but put it through my pedalboard with a Solidgold Beta V preamp and a Jam Pedals Rat and I'll need to do some serious tweaking, sounds wildly different to the setting I use for my P bass. Now the conundrum of trying to justify having 3 basses around the house... 26 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hooky_lowdown Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Tis a beautiful colour, offset nicely with the pearl pickguard. Yum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ahpook Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 (edited) Do your other basses sparkle like some rare tropical fish ? If not, well... Edited February 2 by ahpook 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And justify what to whom? You already know you need wildly different settings on this therefore it's sufficiently differentiated from your other basses.

SurroundedByManatees Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Super nice. I would have done the same. At that price, you need it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
