For kids growing up in DC in the early 1990s, the tone at the beginning of "Waiting Room" defined what bass should sound like. Clear and big without sacrificing the bottom-end.

big +1. Waiting Room is one of the best songs ever.

 

[Kenova]

Paul Turner from Jamiroquai!!!

Randy Jackson played a pink polka dot Stingray in Journey.

Roger from Less Than Jake has used a MM forever. I thought I remembered him using a Jazz bass at some point, but I could not find one picture with anything but his MM.

I just happened to click on to this video while reading this thread, but it seems the bassist from Flyleaf does. Although, that looks exactly like the Sterling 5 string that I saw in the Musician's Friend catalog, but I figure it's close enough to post.

Timmy C from Rage Against the Machine used a Stingray on the first RATM cd I believe.

 

[delucajohn2000]

Whoops. Looks like someone mentioned Timmy already but if you watch the old Live at the Lyceum video from The Cult, Jamie Stewart is using a Stingray.

 

[TomA1234]

Steve Kmack (Disturbed's bassist on the sickness and believe) used one.

 

[Bunyo]

Joe Lally of Fugazi:

+100

Todd "The Rod" Kowalski from Propagandhi is my fave Stingrayer

Was this photo at Harvest of Hope festival? I was there that night. I had been waiting like 10 years to see Propaghandi.... And How to Clean Everything was a great album!
