Some great info so far guys, so thank you. Thank you to rust preacher for this fantastic photos! I think I ship it back in a hard case with me. I was looking at getting a danelectro longhorn, or another p bass. My 2 current fender are from ishibashi and they are awesome...

Hi Guys, Heading to Japan in the next month or two, and looking at buying a bass while im over there. Most specifically while im in Tokyo, i've heard the ochanomizu area is the place to be. My question is how do i get it back? Obviously on the plane, but im just wondering if you guys have...

Ship internationally? Im in Australia. Been looking for one of these for a while.

Thanks for the info guys. Rocksolid, are we talking the same finish here, mine is a brand new 2010 Ray, so it has, well barely even has a finish on the neck. Its the very light finish they use on them, like and oil or something? Oh and I know what a kitchen scourer is too! :D Do you use...

Hey Guys, Bought a 'Ray about 6 months ago and the neck is starting to get a little dirty. Not really bad, but enough for me to dislike it. Just curious what you guys use to clean the necks of your Stingray, or any other bass that has a similar oil finished neck. I've heard a few people...

Hi Guys, Looking at getting new strings. My Uni has an upright with strings on it that have purple and red silks on them. Think they are thomastiks. Love the feel of them because they are really low tension and super easy on left and right hand. Can anyone confirm what they are for me...

Yeah the mark up on ray's in aus is ridiculous. I've been trying to find a good secondhand one but everyone that pops up is black/maple. And i swore i woukld never own another black bass. Karatekid i've been searching everywhere for a trans teal ray! I have major problems when it comes to...

Great looking burst on that jazz man. And very clean too. I turn 21 in a month or 2 and I'm thinking of doing the same thing. Would love to get a stingray. But I don't want a black and maple one lol. Once again man, great looking bass. Gleno.

red down the bottom. dont remember the top.

Hey, There is an upright at my tafe that i have played with really great tone and i think its the strings. I dont know what they are but they have a red binding on them. Can anyone tell me what they are?? Cheers, Glen

I have my bass sitting about waist height, maybe a little higher if thats what you mean. Im not just some punk indie kid from australia if thats what your suggesting :D I actually study music at a tertiary level just so you know.

I own a mexican fender jazz deluxe, i really like this bass and it has been with me for a good 3 or 4 years now and has been a hard worker. I dont know whether to sell it or to mod it. If i was to sell, chances are i would probably buy another japanese fender, or a stingray. However i had...

Had my first double bass lesson the other day and i really enjoyed it. I've been playing and studying electric at a tertiary level and i always wanted to play double bass. So... i spoke to my bass teacher, and he was more than happy to give me a few lessons. I enjoyed it heaps and got that...

are you guys reffering to the older years or the current. im just curious because i know the older years were great for the japanese fenders, just curious about the new ones circa 2006.

I have the oppurtunity to pickup a 2006 Cij 62 reissue p bass in reasonable condition for a reasonable price. Just wondering what the newer/current basses are like. Cheers, Glen
