MM4 neck

Sign in to disble this ad
I replaced the neck on my MM4 stingray with a Status composite neck, now I have a stock neck laying around... Can I put this neck on an OLP or a SUB model? If so, how would I deal with the mismatch with the bolts for the body (6 for the Stingray, 4 for the others)?

The OLP neck will fit an OLP of the same model.
How did the bass sound with the graphite neck?

I think he is trying to fit a MM neck on a OLP body. Try to get the cavity dimensions from the OLP site or the SUB ones from the Ernie Ball site and match them with the measurements you get from the neck. The wholes can probably be filled. If you cant get the demensions from the websites PM a TBer with one of those basses and ask them if they can measure the cavity.

I like it, it's got a Bart p/up and it sounds like a Modulus

I didn't buy the other one yet, I noticed some of the OLPs and SUBS come with 22 frets, this is a stock stingray neck with 21.... circa 2000

Thanks
