    SOLD.. Here's a really cool 94 StingRay. 3-band EQ,6 bolt neck,full size vintage style bridge. White finish which has faded nicely to match the wear on the bass.

    Anyone ever stick a M.M. humbucker in a T-40?

    It occurs to me if the bridge pickup locations are the same,dropping a MM pup and pre in a T-40 could be a cheap way to capture some vintage StingRay like tone.....I'm aware the Ray has a couple more frets but the sound would be fairly close? With all that ash and maple,and thru-body stringing...
