wonderful story! My parents, God bless ‘em, bought me a Rick 4001 and a Kustom amp in 1972. It was my first bass but and I was a beginner.

I have three Stingrays, an “Old Smoothie”, a neck-thru, and a five string fretless. All are single H. The neck-thru and the five string have flats. I find I can get any tone I need with a combination of playing technique, and onboard/amp EQ.😺
