You came back and kicked the door down!!Aqua Sparkle 5HH and Dargie 4HH on the way. Dove back into the club
These 2 and a used Cutlass right?
Picked up right where you left off .
That’s a very nice Stingray but it’s not a Stingray Special.
Maybe post that beautiful — but not StingRay Special — bass here: Music Man StingRay Club | PART FIVE.
I REALLY wish they did that finish and neck option for the Specials though.
My rig is bi-amped BTW, so that might be part of it for me.... Maybe I will turn the bi-amp off and adjust from there.
To each their own, my friend. That's why there are sooooo many.
Yeah, I may have to try flats on mine…
Yinz guys are tempting me.
Hello, fellow Picksburgher!
Looks like the 5 string has all the old SR hardware/preamp/pickups but still retains the sculpted neck joint, interesting move
That is a pretty reasonable price for a custom-shop-like instrument.
At first glance, I was like
, but then i saw the specs and now I'm like
. I like the quilted maple top and roasted neck. Also the black hardware is very nice. But old pickups and preamp is where they lost me. It would be nice if they are going to do block inlays they should also do at least one, if not two inline hum buckers or true single coils. What? No ebony fingerboards either?
Once again , my $ is safe.

The inline humbucker or single coil idea would be really interesting to see for sure
Very tempting though still! That jet black Special
If it had an ebony board I’d had already ordered it before typing this!

More pics because its sexy...
I have to agree why 9v with old pickups?! Its a "special" model after all.
From GC spec page, it says 18v with neo magnet pickups probably a mistake.
Scottm is right ebony would be so right for this
